Francisco de goya y Lucientes

Spanish Entertainment

1825 Lithograph, 300 x 410 mm Biblioteca Nacional, Madrid This litograph is one of the four in the series The Bulls of Bordeaux. As in his early paintings, and unlike in his Tauromaquia, Goya takes a step back from the events in the ring. His focus now falls not on the battle to the death that had earlier fascinated him and inspired him to new compositional solutions, but on the bullfight as popular entertainment. Perhaps the emigr?was also inspired by reminiscences of life in Spain. Author: GOYA Y LUCIENTES, Francisco de Title: Spanish Entertainment Form: graphics , 1801-1850 , Spanish , other
