Jean Cocteau and Raymond Moretti. Collective painting "L'Age du Verseau". Nice 1962.

In a Nice studio in 1962, Jean Cocteau and Raymond Moretti collaborate on their monumental painting, "L'Age du Verseau." Poised on a stepladder, Cocteau leans forward with a focused expression to apply white paint to the upper part of the canvas. Below, a similarly absorbed Moretti works on a lower section of the abstract, graphic composition. The scene captures a moment of quiet concentration and shared artistic labor as the bold, curvilinear lines of the artwork take shape.
