In the Arles bullring, matador Antonio Ordóñez executes a classic pass, luring the bull with a muleta held low to the ground. His body is arched away in a pose of intense focus and control. The 1959 Corrida des vendanges drew an illustrious crowd, including Pablo Picasso, Jacqueline, Jean Cocteau, and fellow matador Luis Miguel Dominguin, who watched with Lucia Bosè while sidelined by injury. Ordóñez was one of the leading bullfighters chronicled by Ernest Hemingway in "The Dangerous Summer."
