Antonio Chamaco. Corrida des vendanges à Arles 1959. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").

During the Corrida des vendanges in Arles, 1959, matador Antonio Chamaco is viewed from behind in his ornate 'traje de luces.' He stands in the sandy arena beside a large bull whose head is lowered, its back pierced by several barbed banderillas. Behind the wooden barrier, three men watch the event intently as racks of lances line the background wall. This bullfight was one attended by Picasso.
