A dense, festive crowd fills the rustic wooden stands for the first Corrida of Vallauris in 1954. Among the spectators, under strings of pennant flags, are (from left) Michel Leiris, Françoise Gilot, Claude Picasso, Pablo Picasso, the town's mayor Paul Derigon, and Hélène Parmelin. In the foreground, two elaborate bullfighter's capes, or *capotes de paseo*, with intricate floral embroidery are draped over the wooden railing.
