Matador & Bull

SOLD

An emotive painting that captures the dramatic spectacle of a matador and a bull, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1970 on reverse.

The subject matter focuses on the intense interaction between the two figures, with the matador standing confidently in his vibrant red attire and the bull charging forward with energy and strength.

The painting exhibits an impressionistic style, emphasising mood and movement over precise details. The loose, gestural and dynamic brushstrokes lend an expressive quality to the work, drawing attention to the motion and emotion of the scene.

The colour palette is warm and earthy, dominated by shades of red, pink, sand, and black. The red of the matador’s cape contrasts strikingly with the dark tones of the bull, creating a focal point in the composition.

This oil on canvas is housed in complementary gilt frame with an inner cream border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Size: 50 x 58 cm (including frame)
