Bullfight (corrida de toros, tauromaquia): Luis Miguel Dominguin. Arles 1960. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").

In the sandy arena of the vast Roman amphitheater in Arles, matador Luis Miguel Dominguin stands poised before a dark, muscular bull. Clad in a traditional “suit of lights,” he holds his cape, ready for the next movement. The ancient stone stands are densely packed with thousands of spectators under the bright sun. Among those in attendance at this 1960 corrida was Pablo Picasso.
