Antonio Ordóñez, a leading matador of the 1950s chronicled by Hemingway in "The Dangerous Summer," performs at the Corrida des vendanges in Arles, 1959. Dressed in his ornate *traje de luces*, he holds a classic pose as a powerful bull lunges through the dust. A cape is caught in a moment of motion as a packed stadium, which included Pablo Picasso among the spectators, watches the tense action unfold.
