EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant world of bullfighting in 18th and 19th century Spain. Titled "Suerte de Matar (Bullfighting stage)" this colored engraving by Antonio Carnicero captures the essence of this traditional Spanish spectacle. The image depicts a moment of intense drama as a matador faces off against a powerful bull in the iconic Suerte de Matar, or killing stroke. Carnicero's masterful use of color brings life to every detail, from the intricate costumes worn by both matador and picadors to the dust kicked up by their swift movements. The Municipal Museum in Madrid proudly houses this remarkable piece that pays homage to Spain's rich cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this vertical composition, we are transported back in time to witness an art form deeply rooted in Spanish tradition. Bullfighting has long been celebrated for its display of bravery, skill, and passion. This engraving serves as a testament to the enduring allure of this controversial sport. Santiago Ortega's lens beautifully captures not only Carnicero's artwork but also our fascination with history and culture. Through his lens, we can appreciate how art can transcend time and space, allowing us to connect with past generations while sparking conversations about our present values. This print is more than just an image; it is a window into Spain's past—a reminder of its complex tapestry woven with tradition, artistry, and controversy surrounding bullfighting.
