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

In a Nice studio in 1962, Jean Cocteau stands on a stepladder, delicately applying a fine white line to the monumental collective painting, "L'Age du Verseau." Below him, collaborator Raymond Moretti crouches to work on a lower section of the vast modernist canvas. The artwork, set against a dark background, is defined by bold, curvilinear lines that form stylized, biomorphic shapes. The atmosphere is one of focused artistic creation.
