Spanish torero Luis Marca. On the grandstand Françoise, Pablo Picasso, Paul Derigon, the mayor of Vallauris, Hélène Parmelin, Edouard Pignon. First Corrida of Vallauris 1954.

Spanish torero Luis Marca, dressed in an ornate suit of lights (*traje de luces*), executes a pass with his magenta *muleta* as a dark bull charges past, kicking up dust in the arena. Watching this dramatic moment from the grandstand during the first Corrida of Vallauris in 1954 are Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot, alongside Paul Derigon, the mayor of Vallauris, Hélène Parmelin, and Edouard Pignon.
