Francine Weisweiller and "L'homme chien" (Guy Dute and Jean-Claude Petit). During filming of "Le Testament d’Orphée", film of Jean Cocteau. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1959.
During the filming of Jean Cocteau's "Le Testament d’Orphée" at Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat in 1959, Francine Weisweiller strikes a dramatic pose in a sunlit garden. Dressed in a Victorian-style gown with a high collar, she holds a large white parasol. Behind a brick-lined lily pond, Guy Dute and Jean-Claude Petit, embodying "L'homme chien," provide a stark contrast. Dressed only in briefs, Dute wears a large, animalistic mask as Petit leans against him, laughing.
