The vast stone tiers of the amphitheater in Arles are packed for a bullfight in 1959. Seated together in the grandstand are, from left, Paulo Picasso, John Richardson, Douglas Cooper, Jean Cocteau, Pablo Picasso, and the matador Luis Miguel Dominguin. Below them, behind a high wooden barrier, other bullfighters gather in the narrow corridor. The crowd leans intently over the concrete wall, with several spectators holding cameras aloft to capture the scene unfolding in the sandy bullring.
