Tauromaquia is one of the fundamental series of European engravings, in which Goya develops, by means of the etching technique, an intense and deeply modern vision of the art of bullfighting. This careful facsimile edition by Antonio de Horna faithfully reproduces the original matrices, respecting the quality of the line, the hallmarks and the expressive richness of the series.

The limited edition, certified by notarial act, reinforces its interest as a collector's item, while guaranteeing its controlled character within the publishing field. Preserved in its original box, the set presents a special attraction for its integrity and presentation, being this type of copies especially valued in the market due to its direct link with one of Goya's most emblematic series.
