In this engraving titled "Bullfights: The Death of Pepe Illo (3rd Composition), 1876". Francisco de Goya takes us into the heart-pounding world of bullfighting. With his masterful strokes, Goya captures the intensity and tragedy that often accompany these ancient spectacles. The central focus of the print is on Pepe Illo, a renowned Spanish bullfighter who met his untimely demise in the arena. Goya's attention to detail allows us to witness every emotion etched on Pepe's face as he confronts the charging beast with unwavering courage.
