Picasso, Toros y Toreros, Luis Miguel Dominguin (book) by Pablo Picasso, Georges Boudaille, and Luis Miguel Dominguin. Editions Cercle d’Art, 1961. Book in a slipcase, hardcover, in very good condition except for some foxing on the edges and marks on the slipcase. Texts in French and Spanish.
Toros Y Toreros is a collection of bullfighting drawings by Pablo Picasso published in 1961, accompanied by a text by the bullfighter Luis Miguel Dominguin and an essay by Georges Boudaille. The title of the book is handwritten by Picasso.
Picasso created the cover and illustrations from a series of three sketchbooks. The technique involved an almost systematic use of ink washes with a brush, reproducing the book on Arches paper. The drawings were printed at the Atelier Mourlot, a famous lithographic printing house that collaborated with Picasso, among other artists such as Matisse and Chagall, in Paris.
These drawings by Picasso cover the period from 1950 to 1960, a time during which he enjoyed watching Domingo’s bullfights in the arenas of Nîmes, Arles, Fréjus, and Vallauris.
