Pablo Picasso, in a vibrant yellow shirt, attends a bullfight in Nîmes, 1960. He is seated in the front row, surrounded by (from left) his son Paulo, the writer Michel Leiris, his wife Jacqueline, and Marie Cuttoli, a close friend and collector of his works. While Picasso looks toward the camera, Jacqueline is seen in profile, her attention fixed on the event. Draped over the barrier in the foreground are two ornately embroidered matador’s capes, their rich floral and gold patterns contrasting with the crowded concrete stands of the arena.
