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

Sylvette David, a young art student chosen by Pablo Picasso as a model, is photographed in Vallauris in 1954. With her blonde hair tied in a high ponytail, she leans from an open window and looks directly at the camera, her forearms resting on the sill. An open louvered shutter and out-of-focus foliage frame the scene, which is captured in high-contrast black and white by the strong, direct sunlight.
