Bullfight (Manet)
Painting by Édouard Manet
Bullfight (French - Combat de taureau ) is an 1865-1866 painting by Édouard Manet, now in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.[1] It was produced after the artist's trip to Spain in 1865 and forms part of his Spanish period (1862-1867).
The painting depicts a rare event in the Spanish bullfight, when the bull manages to attack and bring down the horse. Admired and backed by Charles Baudelaire[2][3] and Émile Zola,[4] the work was so strongly attacked by other art critics that Manet kept it in his studio until 1872, when the Frères Goncourt praised it.
