A young art student, Sylvette David, was chosen by Pablo Picasso as model in 1954. for a series of paintings and drawings. With her fiancée Toby Jellinek. Vallauris 1954.

The young art student Sylvette David, who modeled for a series of Pablo Picasso's works, shares an intimate, sunlit moment with her fiancée, Toby Jellinek, in Vallauris, 1954. Framed by a rustic doorway, the backlit Sylvette is seen in profile, her blonde hair illuminated as she looks up at him. She wears a distinctive gingham skirt while he, in a light shirt and cuffed trousers, gazes down at her. The strong sunlight casts a sharp shadow on the gravel floor, contrasting the dark interior with the bright landscape beyond.
