N.p.: N.p., 1959. Two vintage borderless photographs of writer Ernest Hemingway and a friend at a bullfighting match, circa 1959. With manuscript annotations regarding layout to the verso, along with the stamps of Tele-Magazine, Radio Magazine, and Dalmas press agency.

Hemingway made several visits to Spain throughout his life, including one memorable trip in July 1925 which inspired his 1926 novel "The Sun Also Rises." He visited Spain again in 1959 to research a series of bullfighting articles commissioned by Life magazine, which were later integrated into the full-length novel "The Dangerous Summer" (published posthumously in 1985).

One photograph 9.5 x 7 inches, one photograph 10.5 x 8.5 inches. Near Fine.
