EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the vibrant atmosphere of the Plaza Mayor of Madrid adorned for a royal bullfighting event on the afternoon of July 20, 1803. The scene is alive with activity, from the balcony of Their Majesties to the Halberdiers and Caballeros de Plaza below.
The intricate details in this print transport us back to a time when bullfighting was not just a sport, but a grand spectacle that brought together people from all walks of life. The Chulos and Picadores are ready for action, while the Toril de la Villa Madrid stands as a reminder of the fierce bulls awaiting their turn in the ring.
As we gaze upon this historical image, we can almost hear the cheers of the crowd and feel the excitement in the air. It serves as a window into Spanish society in the 19th century, showcasing both its traditions and its passion for this controversial form of entertainment.
This engraving is not just a work of art; it is a piece of history preserved for generations to come. It reminds us of how culture and tradition have shaped our world, and invites us to reflect on our own views on events like bullfighting that continue to spark debate today.
