EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph from the 19th century takes us back in time to witness a thrilling moment of bullfighting in Spain. The print, titled "Perch Jump" captures the intense energy and grace of this ancient tradition. In the center of the composition, we see a courageous matador facing off against a powerful bull. The tension is palpable as both man and beast are locked in an exhilarating dance of life and death. The matador's red cape billows behind him, adding a vibrant splash of color to the otherwise monochromatic scene. The artist skillfully portrays the dynamism of this spectacle through bold lines and intricate details. Every muscle on both human and animal is meticulously rendered, showcasing their strength and agility. It is evident that this lithograph was created by someone with deep knowledge and appreciation for Spanish culture. As we gaze at this historic artwork, we can almost hear the roar of the crowd, feel our hearts race with anticipation, and smell the dust kicked up by hooves pounding against sandy ground. This print not only immortalizes a specific moment in time but also serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with these daring displays. Leonard de Selva has masterfully captured an iconic aspect of Spanish heritage through his lens, allowing us to experience firsthand one of its most emblematic traditions - bullfighting.
