Description
[CURIOSA]. Set of erotic cards on bullfighting. [“Sorte de gaiolla” (“Cage trial”)]. Extremely rare set of 20 colour cards featuring comic-pornographic images on the theme of bullfighting. No place, circa 1920. 20 numbered cards (93 x 142 mm), cardboard-backed in the style of postcards. Presented mounted on double perforated sheets. Captions in Portuguese; on the reverse, the inscription ‘Bilhete postal Portugal e Hespanha’. This daring series combines erotic symbolism with the tradition of bullfighting: the bull, the embodiment of virility, is depicted as a phallus, whilst the matadors, portrayed as naked women, wield banderillas and muletas. Thus, the twenty cards depict the various stages of this reimagined bullfight, from the bulls’ pasture to their slaughter. Complete set in very good condition.
