Henri-Georges Clouzot and Pablo Picasso at work during filming of "Le mystère Picasso", documentary. Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, director Henri-Georges Clouzot gestures towards a bare-chested Pablo Picasso during the 1955 filming of the documentary 'Le mystère Picasso'. This high-angle view shows the artist’s studio filled with filmmaking equipment, including a large spotlight and a vintage camera. Coiled cables lie on the floor, and in the background, a large painting of a stylized, reclining nude rests on a low workbench among other canvases.
