A band plays Spanish melodies to welcome Pablo Picasso to the village square in Vallauris for a corrida in 1955. The artist, wearing a dark beret, is surrounded by friends and family. Jean Cocteau, behind him, places a hand on his hat in a friendly gesture. The group includes, from left, Javier Vilató and Germaine Lascaux. Standing with Picasso are Jacqueline Roque and Florette Lartigue, wife of photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue (visible behind Cocteau). In the foreground are Picasso’s children: Maya, a pensive Paloma with a bow in her hair, and Claude.
