but also bullfighting art. How does bullfighting influence the meaning of Picasso's
Guernica?
But Picasso's Guernica does not depict the traditional Spanish bullfight you might
expect to see in a "nationalistic" painting. Rather than depicting a victorious matador
bowing to the crowds before a slaughtered bull, in Guernica the bull remains stoically
standing to the left side of the painting while the matador lays dead in the foreground,
the sword or spear he might have used to slaughter the bull broken off in his hand.
Like the fallen matador, his horse is also dying and anguished. Only the bull remains
peaceful in Guernica, with the other figures and the entire composition of the painting
turned toward the bull, an unlikely peaceful "center" for the war painting on the left Starry Night: Meaning of the Vincent Van
