A dense crowd of spectators fills rustic wooden bleachers for the first Corrida of Vallauris in 1954. Seated in the front row are, from left, Michel Leiris, Françoise Gilot, Claude Picasso, Pablo Picasso, the mayor of Vallauris Paul Derigon, and Hélène Parmelin. The lively, communal atmosphere is enhanced by strings of pennant flags and two elaborately embroidered bullfighting capes draped over the railing. In the crowd, some hold decorative fans and signs, while one man raises a vintage camera.
