A vintage, mid-century sculpture comprising complementary wire figures of a banderillero and a bull in confrontation. Both stand approximately 12" tall and are formed from twisted black metal wire. The banderillero is embellished with brass wire, ornamenting his traje de luces (suit of lights) and his rejones de castigo (lances of punishment). A single strand of black wire outlines his profile. In excellent vintage condition with a light patina of age.
