José Tomás, performing in Valladolid on September 4, 2016, in Valladolid, Spain, in a bullfight in honor of matador Victor Barrio.
This was the first, and so far, only time I have seen José Tomás perform. The word purity is what came to mind while watching him. The supreme seriousness and purity of his actions in the ring are unparalleled in modern bullfighting. Though his appearances are limited I hope to see him again soon!
