In the sandy bullfighting ring of Vallauris, 1954, matador Pepe Luis Marca, dressed in an ornate suit of lights, confronts a dark bull. Seen from behind, he holds a muleta low to the ground as the animal stands facing him. Behind a rustic wooden barrier, a large crowd watches intently from the tiered stands. Among the spectators are Pablo Picasso, Françoise Gilot, their son Claude, and the writer Michel Leiris.
