El Cordobés. Fréjus 1965. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").

The matador El Cordobés stands in profile in the center of a sunlit bullfighting ring in Fréjus, 1965. Dressed in an ornate *traje de luces* and a traditional *montera* hat, he holds a folded cape as his sharp shadow stretches across the sand. Behind him, the vast stands built into a rocky hillside are densely packed with spectators, a crowd that on this occasion included Pablo Picasso.
