169 Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) – Torero on Horseback, 14.7.59 – Toros y Toreros – Lithograph (1961)
This expressive lithograph by Pablo Picasso, dated July 14, 1959, is part of the Toros y Toreros series, published in 1961. Titled Torero on Horseback, the artwork captures the vibrant and chaotic energy of the Spanish bullfight. The image depicts a matador mounted on a powerful horse, rendered in Picasso's signature fluid lines and bold, gestural brushstrokes. Shades of deep purple, green, and black evoke the dramatic intensity of the arena, while the abstracted forms highlight Picasso's mastery of emotion over strict realism.
The Toros y Toreros series is a celebration of Spanish culture, particularly the ritualistic drama of the corrida. Produced by Mourlot in Paris and published by Cercle d’Art, this edition is a testament to Picasso's deep connection to Spanish tradition and his unparalleled ability to capture movement and passion.
Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) was one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, known for pioneering Cubism and redefining modern art through an array of innovative techniques. His later works, like Toros y Toreros, reflect a liberated approach to form and subject, characterized by spontaneity and raw expressiveness.
