About the Item

The Picador Incites the Bull. 1911. Drypoint. Hardie 104. 6 1/4 x 9 7/8 (sheet 8 1/4 x 11 7/8). Edition 30, #5. Slight mat line, 1 hinge stain in the lower margin, well outside the image; otherwise fine original condition. A rich impression with drypoint burr printed on antique laid paper. Signed and numbered in ink. Housed in a 16 x 20-inch archival mat. The bullfight series was one of the artist's early successes, bringing him local and international acclaim. Hardie writes: "The picador, on horseback, with his spear held downwards, is on the left. The bull, with head slightly lowered, faces him on the right' while further to the right is a second picador."
