As a band plays his favourite Spanish melodies, Pablo Picasso arrives in the village square of Vallauris for a corrida in 1955. The artist, in a textured beret, is surrounded by a dense crowd of family and friends. Jean Cocteau playfully places a hand on his hat, while Jacqueline Roque stands by his side. Also present are Javier Vilató and his wife Germaine Lascaux, photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue with his wife Florette, and Picasso’s children Maya, Paloma, and Claude, who are nestled in the foreground amidst the vibrant, celebratory atmosphere.
