Françoise Gilot leads the toreadors into the arena for the Corrida of Vallauris in 1954. Wearing a flat-brimmed hat and a white shirt, she rides a muscular chestnut horse across the dusty ground, holding a long, slender pole. The photograph, taken from a low angle on a bright, sunny day, captures the motion of the horse with its front hoof raised. Spectators watch from the stands behind a wooden fence, and another bullfighter in traditional pink leggings is visible in the background against a line of lush trees.
