María Isabel Senís García (Valencia, December 8, 1928) demonstrated from a very young age her intellectual and creative restlessness, and a firm determination that led her to constantly overcome the conventions and limitations of the time in which she lived.
May 18 is International Museum Day and to commemorate this day, given the current circumstances of COVID-19, we invite you to do it virtually. For this reason, we offer you a small Museu-virutal de l'Art valencià antic i modern as an introduction to Valencian Art.
The Little Descriptive Treatise on Bullfights is one of Vicente Blasco's lesser-known books. It was published in France in 1925 for French fans. He guides us in the world of bullfighting, since its origins. He describes the arenas, the bullfighters and their gangs and of course ... bulls and bullfighting, their qualities, and tells us about the breeders, the most famous of his time.
This book allows us to appreciate all the mastery and talent of the Valencian writer, the most international.
This book tries to cover the daily consultations around the Valencian History of a fast and efficient way, at the same time that introduces those not accustomed to the Valencian History the prolegomena of the same, its most important facts, its outstanding men, its companies and its victories, which very often, in recent history, have been denied and belong to us body and soul.
Here it is, with the hope that this book will serve to build a better future.
