Luis Miguel Dominguin. Arles 1960. A bullfight Picasso attended (see "Picasso").
In the Arles arena in 1960, matador Luis Miguel Dominguin confronts a large, dark bull during a bullfight attended by Pablo Picasso. Dressed in a traditional suit, Dominguin guides the animal with his cape as it moves past him. Several decorated, barbed sticks, known as banderillas, are lodged in the bull's powerful shoulders. In the background, the tiered stands are densely packed with spectators watching the dynamic event.
