Pablo Picasso and His Bull

        Although Cubism and Modern Art are neither scientific nor intellectual, they are visual and come from the eye and mind of one of the greatest geniuses in art history. Pablo Picasso, born in Spain, enjoys the reputation of “the youngest and the greatest painter in the world”. Among all his works, Bull is one of the most prevailing paintings. Pablo Picasso created “Bull” around the Christmas of 1945. “Bull” is a suite of eleven lithographs that have become a master class in how to develop an artwork from the academic to the abstract. In this series of images, all pulled from a single stone, Picasso visually dissects the image of a bull to discover its essential presence through a progressive analysis of its form. Each plate is a successive stage in an investigation to find the absolute “spirit” of the beast. To start the series, Picasso creates a lively and realistic brush drawing of the bull in lithographic ink. It is a fresh and spontaneous image that lays the foundations for the developments to come. Picasso used the bull as a metaphor throughout his artwork, but he refused to be pinned down as to its meaning. Depending on its context, it has been interpreted in various ways: as a representation of the Spanish people; as a comment on fascism and brutality; as a symbol of virility; or as a reflection of Picasso’s self image. Such paintings will make your room more beautiful and elegant and greatly upgrade your artistic taste.
