Bullfight (corrida de toros, tauromaquia): Antonio Ordóñez with a bull's ear. Arles 1960. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").

In the sunlit arena of Arles, matador Antonio Ordóñez raises his arm in a triumphant gesture, holding a bull’s ear awarded for a skillful performance. Dressed in his ornate 'traje de luces,' he stands in profile before the packed stone tiers of the ancient amphitheater. The photograph was taken in 1960 at a bullfight attended by Pablo Picasso.
