Jean Cocteau, making a drawing for the 6th Cannes Film Festival. Cannes 1953.
In a sunlit room in Cannes, Jean Cocteau creates a drawing for the 6th Film Festival in 1953. Seen in profile, the artist wears a light-colored smock, his posture dynamic and concentrated as he paints onto a large, vertical pane of glass. The scene is illuminated by natural light from a balcony overlooking the sea. Nearby, an easel displays film titles for the National Film Board of Canada, while a small table holds Cocteau's supplies.
