Edition of 80 copies (plus artist’s proofs).
Printed by Chr. Belser, Stuttgart.

COMPLETE, featuring 5 + 1 linocuts (one more than the version included in the book published by the same house) on Hahnemühle-Butten paper. Housed in a white portfolio, as originally issued with the book by Manus Presse.

Size of each linocut: 57 x 41 cm.

The linocuts are of supreme quality and entirely free of any marks or blemishes. Despite being over 60 years old, they remain in perfect condition. Please see the photographs. The original price for this suite—through Manus Presse and Círculo del Arte—was 4,300 euros.

A historic, chromatic elegy by Bores, inspired by the bullfighter who died "at five in the afternoon"—a man who was a friend to Lorca and other poets of the Generation of '27. In 1964, this artist of the School of Paris received an award for the best illustrated book (for the work that includes this suite) in recognition of this deeply felt tribute to Federico García Lorca. The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía holds a complete suite in its collection.

Over 60 years old and exceptionally well-preserved. The printing is neat, clean, and vibrant in color.
