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

Matador El Cordobés in profile during a 1965 bullfight in Fréjus, an event Pablo Picasso also attended. He wears a traditional black *montera* hat, with a small pigtail, or *coleta*, visible at the back. A slight smile graces his face as he holds a piece of fabric in his mouth. His ornate jacket, a *chaquetilla*, is decorated with floral embroidery and beads. To his right, another matador is partially visible against the out-of-focus, sunlit stands of the bullring, creating a candid moment between the two figures.
