Local Corrida. Pablo Picasso with a bull sculpture, a present from the bullfighters ("A notre camarade Pablo Picasso, Section Vallauris, Corrida 1955."). Jacqueline, Maya Picasso, Claude Picasso, Paloma Picasso, Jean Cocteau, Francine Weisweiller. Vallauris 1955.
In Vallauris, 1955, Pablo Picasso is the focus of a celebratory gathering following a local corrida. As Jacqueline Roque peers over his shoulder, the artist intently examines a document. A sculptural bull—a gift inscribed "A notre camarade Pablo Picasso" from local bullfighters—is presented. Nearby, writer and filmmaker Jean Cocteau signs an autograph book, while Picasso’s son Claude, holding a guitar, observes the scene. The group is surrounded by a dense crowd of admirers under festive string lights.
