In a hotel bedroom in Arles, 1959, matador Luis Miguel Dominguin sits on the edge of a bed, his expression serious and attentive in conversation with Antonio Ordonez. Propped against pillows in dark pajamas, Ordonez holds a lit cigarette to his lips, his gaze directed away in quiet contemplation. The photograph captures the two leading bullfighters during the season of their famous rivalry, chronicled by Ernest Hemingway in "The Dangerous Summer."
