Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973) A dynamic drawing on paper capturing the intensity of a bullfight, featuring a picador on horseback and a powerful bull. The composition utilizes fluid, expressive black linework and vibrant blue and yellow accents, characteristic of the artist's lifelong fascination with the Tauromaquia. Signed "Picasso" in the upper right. Framed. Pablo Picasso was a revolutionary Spanish artist and a primary founder of the Cubist movement, renowned for his immense versatility across painting, sculpture, and printmaking. Spending most of his career in France, he frequently integrated traditional Spanish themes, such as the bullfight, into his work as symbols of life, death, and struggle. His legacy is defined by a constant reinvention of form and an unparalleled influence on 20th-century visual culture. Dimensions: Unframed: 11 7/8 x 8 3/8 inches Provenance: Private collection.
