Sylvette David, a young art student chosen by Pablo Picasso as a model, stands with her fiancée, Toby Jellinek, in a sunlit doorway in Vallauris, 1954. Jellinek, wearing a light shirt and ascot, is positioned behind David, looking down at her as she gazes up at him. She is dressed in a dark, wide-necked top and a full skirt with a bold gingham pattern. The rustic entryway frames the intimate moment, with the sun-drenched landscape of the hillside village visible in the background.
