Focus on this artwork and explain the The cutting.
After having recut Épisode, Manet then reworked L'Homme mort, and cut La Corrida in such a way as to keep three bullfighters at the barrier: the first title chosen for this work was Toreros en action. But if he wanted to keep the men on foot, he had to cut almost the entire bull. The artist decided instead to cut off the feet of the bullfighter on the left and trim the crowd in the stands.
