At the first local Corrida he organized in Vallauris in 1954, Pablo Picasso leans over a wooden barrier to congratulate bullfighter Pepe Luis Marca. The artist had offered one of his ceramic plates as a prize for the event. Dressed in an ornate *traje de luces*, Marca is joined in the arena by French bullfighter Pierrette Le Bourdiec. The festive stands are packed with spectators, among them Françoise Gilot (in a hat), Hélène Parmelin, Edouard Pignon, Marcel Duhamel, and Picasso’s son Claude, seen behind his father.
