Bullfighter Chamaco face to face with the bull. Corrida des vendanges. Arles 1959. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").

In the sandy arena of Arles, bullfighter Chamaco kneels on one knee before a large, dark bull during the Corrida des vendanges in 1959. Dressed in an ornate suit, he holds a cape to the ground as the bull, its head lowered, confronts him. Two decorated banderillas are lodged in the animal’s shoulders, while spectators watch the tense standoff from the stands. This particular bullfight was also attended by Pablo Picasso.
