Antonio Ordóñez, a leading bullfighter in the 1950's and the last survivor of the dueling matadors chronicled by Hemingway in ''The Dangerous Summer''. In his bedroom at the Hotel. Corrida des vendanges à Arles 1959.
In a hotel bedroom in Arles, 1959, the leading bullfighter Antonio Ordóñez shares a joyful, intimate moment. Propped up against the pillows in dark pajamas, he looks on with a delighted grin as a woman seated on the edge of the bed holds a small puppy. The casual scene, captured during the Corrida des vendanges, is illuminated by a single bedside lamp next to a vintage wall-mounted telephone.
