To the sound of his electrical piano, which he bought 1950 in a bistro in Vallauris, Pablo Picasso dances with Jeanne Huguet ("Totote", widow of the catalan sculptor Manolo Huguet). He says: "Je n'avais plus dansé depuis 35 ans!" ("I didn't dance for 35 years!"). La Galloise, Vallauris 1953.

To the sound of his electric piano, Pablo Picasso dances with Jeanne Huguet, widow of the sculptor Manolo Huguet, at his home La Galloise in Vallauris, 1953. "I haven't danced in 35 years!" he reportedly exclaimed. Wearing a striped shirt and dark jacket, the artist smiles while Huguet, her back mostly to the viewer, reaches toward him. Backlit by a large window, the intimate, softly focused moment is filled with a sense of gentle movement, casting the pair in partial silhouette.
