Françoise Gilot, opening the corrida of Vallauris 1.8.1954.

Françoise Gilot opens the corrida in Vallauris on August 1, 1954. Seen in profile, she wears a light-colored shirt and flat-brimmed hat while mounted on a dark horse. The animal is captured mid-stride, its front leg lifted high in an elegant, controlled movement for the intently watching crowd. A low wooden fence separates the sunlit dirt arena from the spectators, with the rooftops of the town visible in the background.
