Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) – Cavalier on Horseback VII – Engraving from the Series Toros y Toreros (1959)
This expressive lithograph from Toros y Toreros captures a bullfighter in profile, likely observing the action within the arena. Executed in fluid black lines and light watercolor washes, the image conveys the raw intensity and ceremonial poise of the bullfight. The silhouette of a bull and matador can be seen in the upper left, reinforcing the scene's dramatic context. Dated 13.7.59, the piece reflects Picasso's spontaneous yet masterful ink technique. Toros y Toreros, published in 1961 France, presents a visual homage to the tradition of bullfighting, deeply embedded in Spanish culture. The series combines Picasso's illustrations with text by bullfighter Luis Miguel Dominguín and writer Georges Boudaille.Pablo Picasso was a Spanish painter, sculptor, and printmaker whose revolutionary work reshaped 20th-century art. A co-founder of Cubism, he explored countless styles throughout his prolific career. This piece reflects his later minimalist period, where line and form took precedence over detail. His depictions of Don Quixote remain among his most beloved cultural images.Artist or Maker:Pablo PicassoDimensions:27 cm x 37 cmMedium:EngravingDate:1961Condition Report:This work is in good condition overall.
