Francine Weisweiller during filming of "Le Testament d’Orphée", film of Jean Cocteau. On the balcony Catherine Hutin, Alberto Magnelli, Pablo Picasso and Sabartés. At Villa Santo Sospir of Francine Weisweiller. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1959.

Francine Weisweiller, in an elaborate aqua-blue period costume, is illuminated by a large studio spotlight during the filming of Jean Cocteau's "Le Testament d’Orphée." The scene takes place in the lush garden of her Villa Santo Sospir in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1959. Observing from the balcony above are Catherine Hutin, the artist Alberto Magnelli, Pablo Picasso, and Jaume Sabartés. The technical film equipment creates a striking contrast with the surrounding green foliage and vibrant hibiscus flowers.
