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

In the vast Roman amphitheater of Arles, matador Luis Miguel Dominguin stands as a solitary figure in the sandy arena during a 1960 corrida. Dressed in a light-colored "traje de luces," he is dwarfed by the sheer scale of the ancient stone structure, where an immense crowd fills every tier of the stands. Spectators pack the venue to its highest remaining walls, observing the grand spectacle under an overcast sky. This particular bullfight was also attended by Pablo Picasso.
