In 1954, young art student Sylvette David was chosen by Pablo Picasso as a model for a series of paintings and drawings. Pictured in Vallauris, David, with her signature blonde hair styled in a high ponytail, smiles directly at the camera. She holds up a sketchbook to display a pencil portrait while wearing a dark, long-sleeved top, a choker, and a black-and-white gingham-patterned skirt. In front of her is a small ashtray and another drawing of a stylized figure.
