This exhibition presents a selection of graphic work by Pablo

exhibition consists of valuable prints from the early part of
his career and from the 1930s, with more than thirty pieces from
the Fundación Juan March collection and from a private
collection. The exhibition is organized around a work that falls

subject is also the bullfight, the exhibition includes a
compendium of twenty-eight etchings dated between 1904 and 1915,
