Spanish torero Jose Montero. In the background one can see on the grandstand Françoise Gilot, Pablo Picasso, Claude Picasso. Vallauris 1954.
Spanish torero Jose Montero faces a bull in the sandy arena of Vallauris, 1954. Dressed in an ornate "traje de luces," or "suit of lights," he assumes a dynamic, low stance, holding a large cape (muleta) out towards the animal. The bull, its head lowered and body coiled, has its attention fixed on the cloth. Among the spectators filling the grandstand in the background are Françoise Gilot, Pablo Picasso, and their son Claude.
