In the scene of the banderilla and the red cloth there are sudden moments of brightness.

This stunning print is taken from 'Incisioni su Linoleum' ('Linoleum etchings'), a book that Picasso made from 1959 to 1960, in which dear themes of his distant land dominate. From corridas to bullfighting, from women to bacchanal themes. This is a perfect linoleum reproduction of the originals on concession of the Louise Leris Gallery in Paris, printed by Helmut Brüllmann KG in Stuttgart. I Edition, Milan - Il Saggiatore.

Born in Malaga on October 25, 1881, Pablo Picasso was a world-famous Spanish painter and sculptor, considered one of the greatest figures of 20th century painting. A leading exponent of the linocut technique, it is to Picasso that we owe the development of the evolution in this area. This procedure allows printing in multiple colors and involves a progressive work of engraving and finishing the matrix, ready for the application of each color.

A crucial link between nineteenth-century tradition and contemporary art, Picasso was an innovative and multifaceted artist, who left an indelible mark on the history of world art for having been the founder, together with Georges Braque, of Cubism.
