Local Corrida. Jean Cocteau, behind him Paul Derigon, the mayor of Vallauris, Francine Weisweiller, Paloma Picasso, Pablo Picasso, Claude Picasso, right French lady bullfighter Pierrette Le Bourdiec. Vallauris 1957.

Pablo Picasso, bare-chested under an open, patterned jacket with a cigarette in his mouth, attends a local corrida in Vallauris, 1957. He gestures while seated among a dense crowd of spectators. To his left are his daughter Paloma, looking up at him intently, and Francine Weisweiller. Further left is Jean Cocteau, with the mayor of Vallauris, Paul Derigon, behind him. On Picasso’s right, his son Claude stares forward from under a wide-brimmed hat, next to the French bullfighter Pierrette Le Bourdiec, who is seen in profile.
