Vintage Matador Oil Painting on Wood Panel in Gilt Frame

An authentic vintage oil painting on wood panel depicting a vibrant group of matadors in traditional traje de luces (suits of lights), standing in a dynamic composition against the backdrop of a bustling bullring with intricate arches. The painting captures the spirit of early-to-mid 20th-century bullfighting, possibly drawing inspiration from legendary matadors like Juan Belmonte, José Gómez Ortega "Joselito," or Manuel Rodríguez "Manolete." The expressive brushstrokes and bold color palette bring to life the artistry and cultural significance of this historic tradition.

The artwork is presented in an ornate wood and plaster gilt frame featuring intricate scrollwork and floral motifs, perfectly complementing the painting's Spanish theme. This wall-mountable piece is both a striking collectible and a decorative masterpiece for enthusiasts of Spanish or Southwestern art.

Condition:

Good vintage condition with age-appropriate wear. The painting shows minor paint loss and chips, consistent with its age, while the frame exhibits areas of gilt finish loss, surface wear, and small chips that enhance its antique charm.

Dimensions:

  • Overall: 16.75" x 13.75" (42.5 x 35 cm)
  • Visible Artwork: 13.2" x 10.2" (33.5 x 26 cm)
