Pablo Picasso - Bulls In Vallauris - Offset Litho

In this striking example of Picasso's distinct linocut style, using a brilliant blue, we see the essence of the bullfight done in a prehistoric cave drawing style that here seems timeless. It is set within an "eye" like form, combined with unique hand lettering, creating a truly unique and memorable composition.



"The most important of the compositions which Pacers made in the 1950's were inspired by his passion for the bullfight and his involvement with making ceramics at Valorous. The emotional drama, the caller, the panache and the clash of strength and power which are the essence of the Bullfight and so much a central element in the Spanish character were a vital element in Pica's inspiration. In the years from the 1950's onwards, as he found himself increasingly tortured by finding the means of expression or the issues in his art, so the Bullfight also became one of the principal ways that he found release and entertainment" (Weston)
