EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a chilling moment in history - the bloody accident in Arles. Published as an illustration in Le Petit Journal: Supplement illustre in 1898, this colour lithograph depicts a horrifying scene from a bullfighting event. The image showcases the intense clash between man and beast, where both horse and bull become victims of this brutal confrontation. The trampled bodies lie motionless on the ground, bearing witness to the violent nature of this ancient tradition. Intricately detailed by an anonymous French artist from the 19th century, every brushstroke brings forth a sense of chaos and desperation. The horses' eyes reveal their fear and pain while the powerful bull stands defiantly amidst the carnage. This artwork serves as a stark reminder of our complex relationship with animals - one that oscillates between admiration and exploitation. It forces us to question our role in perpetuating such bloodshed for entertainment purposes. As we gaze upon this haunting image, we are reminded that conflicts like these continue to exist today, albeit under different circumstances. It is through art that we can confront these uncomfortable truths and strive towards creating a more compassionate world for all living beings.
