Framed Print of A bull-fight at Lisbon: the performers saluting the audience, 1874. Creator: Unknown
A bull-fight at Lisbon: the performers saluting the audience, 1874. Some of the Portuguese nobility and gentry, on Sunday, the 24th May, exhibited a grand bull fight in the Praça Amphitheatre, Campo de Santa Anna, at Lisbon, to raise money for the relief of the sick and wounded, on both sides, in the Carlist civil war in Spain. The Illustrations we engrave are from sketches by our special Portuguese artist, Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro...'The particular rules and usages we describe are closely followed in the bull fights only when the gentry and nobility take part. The ordinary representations are more like the Spanish system. Nearly all the Lisbon world of fashion, elegance, and title filled the boxes and benches of the Praça on this occasion; the result was a very large contribution of money in aid of the charitable object for which the entertainment was got up'...One of the sketches of M. Bordallo Pinheiro shows the scene in the theatre when the leading cavalleiro, the Marquis de Castello Melhor, rode in to make his bow to the spectators. Behind him walk the bandarilheiros or flagmen, the moços de forcado or pitchfork-men, the abegano, and the moços do curro. The netto, and another cavalleiro are on horseback in the background'.
