Signed in ink (recto), titled, dated, numbered and copyrighted (verso) // Lucien Clergue’s Neverais II (1980) is a powerful gelatin silver print that captures the intense moment of a bullfighter in mid-action, face-to-face with a charging bull. The photograph freezes a split-second of high drama and tension in the bullring, highlighting the grace and danger of the bullfighting ritual. The composition is marked by strong contrasts: the bullfighter’s elaborate costume and poised stance contrast sharply with the raw power and movement of the bull. Clergue, known for his photographic storytelling and keen eye for dramatic composition, captures the energy and emotion of the scene, inviting viewers to confront the complex, often controversial nature of bullfighting. Signed on the front and further detailed on the back, the print measures 29.5 x 39.3 cm.

What is photorealism?
Photorealism is a genre of art or artistic movement that involves drawing, painting, and other graphic media in which the artist carefully studies a photograph and attempts to reproduce it as realistically as possible in another medium. While the term can broadly describe any artwork created in this manner, it specifically refers to a group of painters and paintings in the U.S. art movement that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
