A lively crowd fills rustic wooden bleachers for the first Corrida of Vallauris in 1954. Among the spectators are, from left, writer Michel Leiris, Françoise Gilot, Claude Picasso, Pablo Picasso, mayor Paul Derigon, and Hélène Parmelin. In the foreground, two ornately embroidered matador's capes, a light one with dark floral patterns and a dark one with lighter embroidery, are draped over the railing beneath strings of festive pennant flags.
