Le chef d'oeuvre Inconnu (The Unknown Masterpiece)
https://botfrens.com/collections/111/contents/1236769
12 etchings by Picasso and 67 wood engravings after drawings by Picasso Interspersed within the text are 13 original etchings created specifically by Picasso for this book. All deal directly or indirectly with the subject of an artist and his model. In this etching the bull, like the artist, is male and the horse, his female model, both engaged in a stand-off in which the bull clearly dominates. Picasso often used the bull as a symbol of the artistic prowess of the artist in the studio.

Jane Avril
Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's "Jane Avril" features the iconic can-can dancer mid-performance, capturing the vibrant nightlife of Paris in the late 19th century. The artwork showcases Toulouse-Lautrec's distinctive style, with bold colors and dynamic outlines highlighting the movement and energy of the dance.
