Luis Miguel Dominguin. Arles 1960. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").
In a narrow passageway of the Arles arena, bullfighter Luis Miguel Dominguin shows intense concentration before a fight in 1960. Dressed in an ornate 'suit of lights' (traje de luces), he stands beside another matador, seen in profile with his hair pulled into a traditional coleta. Richly embroidered capes hang behind them on a wooden wall, anticipating the bullfight that Pablo Picasso attended from the crowded stands.
