Bilder Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) – Bullfight Scene – Ink Lithograph from Toros y Toreros (1959)

Beskrivning

This striking black ink lithograph by Pablo Picasso is dated 3.4.59 and originates from the iconic Toros y Toreros series. Rendered in bold gestural strokes, the composition features a matador, a bull, and a seated figure, all depicted with dramatic economy and expressive force. The image captures the symbolic essence of the corrida with minimal means, blending abstraction and narrative in Picasso’s mature style. The piece reflects his deep engagement with themes of Spanish identity, ritual, and artistic immediacy.

Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, and printmaker, and one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Throughout his career, he continually reinvented his artistic language. In the late 1950s, his work revisited the spectacle of bullfighting, culminating in Toros y Toreros, published in 1961 by Maeght Éditeur in Paris. These works are considered among the most expressive and gesturally intense of his late period.
