Original photograph - VINTAGE - artist's print on AGFA silver gelatin (baryta) - on the back: artist stamp as well as handwritten note: image number - title, place and year of the recording - hand-signed - COLLECTOR'S EDITION Hubertus Hierl (*1940) was able to photograph Pablo Picasso, with Picasso's consent, during a bullfight in Fréjus (Southern France) (7.8.1966). A stroke of luck! The photographs show Picasso in an environment that, throughout his life, belonged to his major themes: bullfighting. Werner Spies, Picasso expert and former director of the Centre Pompidou, Paris, writes in the book "Picasso beim Stierkampf": "The photographs by Hubertus Hierl show anticipation, tension and fear … they show what Picasso sees and feels." Provenance: directly from the artist's archive - authenticity guaranteed. Literature: Picasso beim Stierkampf. Fotografien von Hubertus Hierl. Text Werner Spies.
