El Cordobés. Fréjus 1965. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").

The matador El Cordobés stands in the Fréjus bullring in 1965, dressed in a vibrant red 'traje de luces' heavily embroidered with gold. Captured in profile, he is in an intense conversation with an older man who leans over the red wooden *barrera*, holding a piece of an ornate cape and speaking animatedly. In the background, the sun-drenched stands are packed with spectators for the bullfight, an event also attended by Pablo Picasso.
