Luis Miguel Dominguin. Nimes 1960. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").

In the ancient stone amphitheater of Nimes in 1960, matador Luis Miguel Dominguin, clad in a pale pink "suit of lights," holds a red cape (muleta) before a charging black bull. With colorful banderillas in its back, the animal kicks up a cloud of dust as it rushes past. The sunlit tiered stands are packed with a vast crowd of spectators for the bullfight, an event also attended by Pablo Picasso.
