Alberto Magnelli, Cocteau, photographer Lucien Clergue. During filming of "Le Testament d’Orphée", film of Jean Cocteau. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1959.

During the filming of "Le Testament d’Orphée" in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat in 1959, Jean Cocteau (center) gestures with a slight smile toward an object, perhaps a book, held by the photographer Lucien Clergue (right). With a camera hanging from his neck, Clergue also smiles as he presents the item. At left, the painter Alberto Magnelli observes the candid exchange in profile. The three artists are captured in a quiet moment outdoors, surrounded by lush foliage.
