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.
At his villa La Galloise, Pablo Picasso dances with Jeanne Huguet ("Totote"), widow of the Catalan sculptor Manolo Huguet. Backlit by a bright window, the smiling couple is cast mostly into silhouette as they hold hands. The impromptu moment occurred to the sound of Picasso's electrical piano, prompting him to exclaim, "Je n'avais plus dansé depuis 35 ans!" ("I haven't danced in 35 years!"). Vallauris, 1953.
