To the sound of his electric piano at the villa La Galloise, Pablo Picasso dances with Jeanne Huguet, widow of the sculptor Manolo Huguet, in Vallauris, 1953. In a moment of spontaneous happiness, he reaches a hand toward her face, his expression joyful. Picasso, wearing a patterned jacket over a striped shirt, remarked on the occasion: “I haven’t danced in 35 years!”
