This lot consists of a Hand Drawn Ink composition on paper, done in the Modern Style of abstract expressionist artist Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973). Hand Signed "Picasso" at bottom right. Image depicts the stark black profiles of a bull and a proud Spanish matador – two subjects Picasso was especially fond of. Seems to have been an addendum to an old letter (possibly Italian). Piece measures approximately 10.25" x 7.25".
