Paco Camino, Nimes 1960. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").
In the vast Nîmes amphitheater in 1960, the matador Paco Camino engages in a dramatic pass during a bullfight attended by Pablo Picasso. Leaning over the back and horns of the charging animal, their bodies almost merge in a display of dangerous proximity as sand is kicked up in the sunlit arena. The immense, tiered stands are packed with a massive crowd, creating a textured backdrop of spectators focused on the spectacle below.
