Stierenvechter in een arena 1856 - 1897

"Stierenvechter in een arena" is an etching by Henri-Charles Guérard depicting a bullfight scene. Created between 1856 and 1897, the artwork captures the dramatic moment of a matador confronting a charging bull in the arena, with a crowd of spectators visible in the background. The use of lines and hatching effectively portrays the dynamism of the scene and the artist's skill in capturing movement. This work is housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcasing Guérard's artistic talent in depicting historical and cultural events.
