Provenance

Sale: Subastas Broc, Barcelona, 28 May 1980
Purchased by the present owner at the above sale

Condition

Original canvas. There may be a few cosmetic retouchings though a proper reading of this is hindered by a fluorescing varnish. There are signs of faint craquelure and the varnish has discoloured in areas (notably around the bull), otherwise the paint surface is in good condition. Held in a plaster moulded gilt frame.
