Pablo Picasso, in a wide-brimmed hat and open patterned shirt, sits amid the bustling crowd at a local corrida in Vallauris, 1957. To his left, his daughter Paloma Picasso and Gérard Sassier watch with intent expressions alongside the artist’s housekeeper, Inès Sassier. The focus of their attention is the Andalusian banderillero Francisco Reina “El Minuni,” who, elevated above the spectators, beams in his ornate “traje de luces.” The convivial atmosphere is enhanced by a festive garland strung between the leafy trees overhead.
