Description:

This piece is an offset lithograph after an original drawing by the celebrated Spanish artist Pablo Picasso (1881–1973). It is a work from the renowned Toros y Toreros (Bulls and Bullfighters) series, which was published as a book in 1961 by Editions Cercle d'Art in Paris. The artwork captures the dynamic theme of bullfighting that was a lifelong fascination for the artist.

• Artwork: The image, titled in some instances as "Cavalier on Horseback VII" or "Horse and Rider" (Caballo y Jinete), is based on an original ink sketch Picasso created on July 13, 1959, and is dated "13.7.59." in the plate at the upper right. It depicts a picador (mounted bullfighter) in a spontaneous, fluid line style, showcasing Picasso's minimalist yet expressive technique.
• Medium & Dimensions: This is a black and white offset lithograph on paper. Standard paper size for prints from this first edition book is typically around 10.5 x 14.5 inches (26.67 x 36.83 cm).
• Condition & Framing: The print is presented here professionally matted and housed in a modern black frame. The general condition should be inspected carefully, as minor imperfections like slight foxing or age toning can be expected with a print of this vintage.
