A dynamic white earthenware plate by Pablo Picasso, hand-painted in bold black strokes against a white ground, depicting the iconic figure of a picador — the mounted bullfighter central to the drama of the corrida. Picasso's masterful economy of line brings the scene to life with expressive, gestural marks that convey both movement and tension. The circular form of the plate serves as a natural arena, perfectly framing this tribute to the Spanish bullfighting tradition that captivated the artist throughout his life.
