Francisco Goya's 'El celebre Fernando del Toro, barilarguero, obligando a la fiera con su garrocha,' created in or before 1816, stands as a monumental achievement in Classical-era printmaking. Part of Goya's legendary 'La Tauromaquia' series, this work captures the stark, architectural tension of the bullring with dramatic precision. Goya utilizes a sophisticated combination of etching and aquatint to render the high-contrast interplay of light and shadow, immortalizing the confrontation between the celebrated picador and the beast. To preserve the historical integrity and original proportions of Goya's plate lines, every format—including our canvas—is finished with the same clean white gallery border that floats the artwork with no cropping, offering a refined, gallery-ready presentation suitable for demanding architectural spaces.
About Your Border
Every format — Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Canvas and Framed Canvas — is supplied with a clean white gallery border framing the image on all four sides. The border is sized in proportion to the piece — approximately 10% of the shortest edge on each side (for example, about 3 cm of white border on a 30 cm-wide piece) — so the artwork keeps its standard proportions with no cropping and is ready to hang or frame straight away. If you prefer, you can also place your own mount/mat on top.
Would you like a different border width, a borderless full-bleed version, or any other adjustment? Just let us know within 24 hours of ordering and we'll tailor it for you at no extra cost.
