Pablo Picasso, in a vibrant yellow polo shirt, attends a bullfight in the crowded stone amphitheater of Nîmes, 1960. He is seated among friends and family: his wife, Jacqueline; his son, Paulo Picasso; the writer Michel Leiris; and Marie Cuttoli, a close friend and collector of his works. In front of their seats, two ornate matador's jackets—'traje de luces'—are draped over the stone barrier, one a light fabric with intricate floral embroidery, the other dark and adorned with lavish gold patterns.
