Luis Miguel Dominguin. Arles 1960. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").
Luis Miguel Dominguin in the Arles arena, 1960. The matador, wearing a traditional white and gold embroidered *traje de luces*, holds his vibrant red cape, or *muleta*, low to the ground. Opposite him stands a large black bull, decorative *banderillas* embedded in its back. In the bright sunlight that casts their distinct shadows across the sand, the two figures are captured in a moment of tense stillness before the next movement. This particular bullfight was attended by Pablo Picasso.
