At a bullfight in Vallauris in 1955, Pablo Picasso is surrounded by an intensely focused group of family and friends. Behind the seated artist, his children Paloma, Maya, and Claude stand with their hands tenderly laid on his head. To the right, writer and filmmaker Jean Cocteau, dressed in a light-colored suit, and Gérard Sassier are also captured in the crowd of captivated spectators, their attention fixed on the event taking place off-camera.
