El Cordobés. Fréjus 1965. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").
In the Fréjus arena in 1965, the bullfighter El Cordobés, dressed in an ornate red and gold embroidered jacket, stands beside a black bull. He holds a large red cape over its head with one hand, while his other rests on the animal's back. The bull is visibly wounded, with blood on its shoulders and several barbed darts stuck in its back. Pablo Picasso was among the dense crowd of spectators watching the event.
