In the postwar era, Picasso shifted from depicting the bullfight in terms of intense emotional contest to focus on its festive character. He supplied 26 plates for a new edition of La Tauromaquia, a 1796 bullfighting manual by José Delgado Guerra (1754-1801), alias Pepe lllo, one of Spain's greatest matadors, who formalised the modern rules of bullfighting Using the technique of sugar aquatint, Picasso indicates with nimble brushstrokes the agile movements of the bullfighters engaging with their horned opponents
