EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lantern slide, number 366 in Box 148 entitled "Spain Bull Fighting & Spanish Life" from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures a fascinating moment in the historical tradition of bullfighting in Spain during the 1890s. The image shows a sortie of the quadrilla, or the procession of matadors and their assistants, making their way across the bullfighting arena. The quadrilla, dressed in their traditional attire, both walk and ride horses as they prepare to enter the ring for the upcoming bullfight. The bullfighting arena, or plaza de toros, is filled with an air of anticipation and excitement as the crowd looks on from the stands. The rough texture of the arena's earthen floor and the stark contrast between the dark, ominous shadows and the bright sunlight add to the sense of drama and intensity. Bullfighting has deep historical roots in Spanish culture, with the first recorded bullfight taking place in the 1st century BC. The tradition has evolved over centuries, with the quadrilla playing a crucial role in the spectacle. The matadors and their assistants, or picadores and banderilleros, work together to weaken the bull before the matador delivers the final blow. Despite controversy and debate over the ethics of bullfighting, this tradition continues to be an integral part of Spanish culture and identity. This image offers a glimpse into the rich history and pageantry of Spain's bullfighting tradition, frozen in time for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
