"Matador with Spanish lady." Oil on canvas, signed "Anton M. Machourek" on the lower right corner. Image measures approx. 25" x 21", not framed. This painting shows a lady with a fan and a matador in close-up. Machourek was born in Moravie in 1913. He studied at the School of Decorative Arts at Prague and also at the School of Fine Arts, Prague. In 1939 he worked on one of the biggest mosaics in the same city. Six years later, in 1945, Machourek attended the Fine Arts School at Paris. He settled in Monaco where his works were often shown. Machourek's paintings and his designs in fresco and mosaics are reflecting the interior intensive temperament of this poetic artist.
