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

In Pablo Picasso’s Vallauris studio in 1954, the young art student Sylvette David is captured in a pensive, three-quarter profile. Chosen by Picasso as a model for a series of works, she is pictured with her characteristic high ponytail, looking towards a brightly lit window. In her hands, she holds a ceramic dove figurine, its tail feathers represented by a large, pleated fan. The rough-textured stone wall and indistinct pottery in the background place her within the artist's creative space.
