About the Item
Carlos Ruano Llopis (1878-1950)
Original Vintage Bullfighting Poster
March 1953
107cm x 53cm
Carlos Ruano Llopis was born in 1878 in Orba, Spain where he would become a celebrated painter and bullfighting poster artist. He began his career in a fan-making workshop to support his family. In 1909, he won the gold medal at the Regional Exhibition, allowing him to enjoy a scholarship to further his studies in Italy. From here onwards, he began to develop his characteristic bullfighting motif. This obsession with bulls was perhaps borne out of his own desire to pursue glory as a matador, an ambition he only curbed in deference to his beloved mother. The vivacity of his bullfighting posters became his trademark and, on one occasion, the prodigious matador Joselito “Gallo” even proclaimed, ‘the artist who painted this knows how to bullfight, even if he has never fought bulls before.’ Bright colours, movement and a sense of passion bring these posters to life, offering a uniquely Spanish charm.
This 1953 edition advertises a bullfighting event in Valencia, featuring Julio Aparicio, Pedro Martinez Pedrés and the much celebrated Antonio Chenel Antoñete. This poster stands apart from Llopis' other bullfighting posters, depicting a matador watching a bullfight and therefore offering a unique perspective of the event.

Original poster c. 1943
Printed for HMSO by J Weiner Ltd, London for the Ministry of Aircraft Production
The waste-not-want-not campaign of World War 2 in the UK had to tackle waste at all levels. Here workers in aircraft factories are encouraged to work carefully in order to avoid creating products that had to be scrapped.
When Lord Beaverbrook commenced his term as Minister of Aircraft Production in May 1940 it was an industry beset with problems. Aircraft parts were produced in sufficient numbers, but assembly into flyable aircraft proved more challenging – the Castle Bromwich...
