Halfway up a long, steep flight of stone steps in a narrow Vallauris alley, a young art student named Sylvette David looks down toward the camera. In 1954, David became the model for a series of paintings and drawings by Pablo Picasso. The high-contrast scene is captured from below, where bright sunlight illuminates the weathered buildings and laundry hangs high overhead, casting deep shadows across the worn stone.
