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

In the packed bullfighting ring of Fréjus in 1965, matador El Cordobés executes a dramatic pass. Clad in an ornate "traje de luces," he holds the muleta low as a large bull charges past, kicking up a cloud of dust from the sandy arena. The tense spectacle unfolded before a crowd that included Pablo Picasso.
