Corrida, 1927
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating gouache on paper artwork by Alexandre Iacovleff that transports viewers to the vibrant world of bullfighting in early 20th century Spain. This dynamic piece measures 56.5x76.2 cm and belongs to a private collection. The painting captures the intense clash between man and beast as they confront each other in a fierce battle within an urban setting. A large group of spectators, both male and female, traditionally dressed in Spanish attire, gather around to witness this thrilling spectacle. The artist skillfully portrays the energy and excitement of the event through his bold brushstrokes and vivid use of color. In the foreground, two animals - one man on horseback and a raging bull - dominate the scene with their raw power. The flag fluttering above adds an element of national pride to this traditional Spanish sport. Iacovleff's work beautifully combines elements of rural life with urban architecture, creating a unique juxtaposition between nature and civilization. The hilly backdrop further emphasizes the natural space where this dramatic confrontation takes place. As we gaze at this early 20th-century masterpiece, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand the thrill and intensity of bullfighting culture in Spain during that era. It serves as a testament to Iacovleff's talent as an artist who captured not only physical action but also emotions felt by both participants and spectators alike.
