In order to do his signature backwards on "La Célestine", 1955. Pablo Picasso was forced to practise for half an hour before he got a result that satisfied Clouzot. "La Célestine", 1955. "Le mystère Picasso", Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

While filming "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, Pablo Picasso leans over a workbench in a moment of intense concentration. To create his signature in reverse for the work "La Célestine," the artist, dressed in a tank top and shorts, practised for half an hour before achieving a result that satisfied director Henri-Georges Clouzot. Two other men stand by, observing the focused creative process within the unadorned workshop.
