Françoise Gilot, opening the corrida of Vallauris 1954. (1.8.1954)

Smiling atop a chestnut horse, Françoise Gilot opens the corrida in Vallauris on August 1, 1954. Dressed in a white shirt, dark trousers, and a pink neckerchief, she presides over the sandy arena as her mount lifts a front leg high. To the left, a bullfighter in a traditional pink and silver suit of lights holds his montera hat, while spectators watch the festive spectacle from behind a wooden barrier on a sunlit day.
