Picasso during filming of "Le mystère Picasso" ("The Mystery of Picasso") by Henri-Georges Clouzot. Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.
A behind-the-scenes moment from the filming of Henri-Georges Clouzot's "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. In the dimly lit studio, a powerful spotlight illuminates a temporary set piece as the crew watches from the shadows. To the right, a shirtless Pablo Picasso lifts a small child to give them a better view of the proceedings. Nearby, a large panel displays one of the artist's characteristic line drawings amidst the working clutter of electrical cables on the wooden floor.
