Pablo Picasso (1838-1913) Toros Villavris 1958 Framed Linocut Print on Paper

Pablo Picasso, Spanish (1838-1913)

Linocut is a printmaking technique where a design is carved into a linoleum block, inked, then printed on paper. This technique allows for more complex, multi-color images.

Picasso created this linocut during his time in Vallauris, and frequently used linocuts to create posters for local events, including bullfights and ceramic exhibitions. This print depicts a bullfighter, rendered in Picasso’s distinctive style which blends Cubist and Expressionist influences.

Picasso’s linocuts from this period are highly sought after by collectors and have been featured in exhibitions worldwide.
