Pablo Picasso working on a bucolic pastoral scene on drawing paper which was to serve as background for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, Pablo Picasso works shirtless and in dark shorts, his concentration focused on a vast sheet of drawing paper. He applies his brush to a bucolic pastoral scene, its modern, abstract figures rendered in bold black lines. The large-scale artwork was created to serve as a background for the film "Le mystère Picasso."
