Antonio Ordóñez, a leading bullfighter in the 1950's and the last survivor of the dueling matadors chronicled by Hemingway in ''The Dangerous Summer''. In his bedroom at the Hotel. Corrida des vendanges à Arles 1959.

In his hotel bedroom in Arles, leading bullfighter Antonio Ordóñez is captured in an intimate moment in 1959. Propped against pillows, the matador smiles warmly at a woman seen in profile in the foreground. The candid scene, softly lit by a bedside lamp, took place during the Corrida des vendanges. Ordóñez was one of the dueling matadors famously chronicled by his friend Ernest Hemingway in "The Dangerous Summer."
