In the sun-drenched amphitheater of Nîmes in 1960, Pablo Picasso attends a bullfight. Centered in the front row and wearing a bright yellow shirt, he is seated between his wife, Jacqueline, and Marie Cuttoli, a close friend and collector of his works. They are joined by the writer Michel Leiris and Picasso’s son, Paulo. Draped over the stone barrier before them are two ornate ceremonial capes, one richly embroidered in gold and the other with colorful floral patterns. The tiered seating behind them is packed with spectators.
