The exhibition at the Palace of Orive in Cordoba is the result of months of research and obtaining select pieces from private collections. In fact, many pieces are on exhibition for the first time for this homage to Manolete on the centennial of his birth. One of the most distinguished pieces, which occupies the centre of the exhibition, is his 1939 Mercedes, as well as the bullfighter¿s costume and cape he wore when he entered the ring in Linares. The International Bullfighting Union has collected some of the bullfighter¿s personal objects, as well as some pieces that are emblematic of his afternoons in the bullfighting ring.
