"Oro Plata: Embroidered Costumes of the Bullfight"

By Daniele Carbonel & Pedro Soler, & Peter Muller, photographer.
Published in Paris by Assouline in 1997.

“Enchanted with the "suit of lights," the heavily embroidered and beaded
suit of the bullfight—gold for matadors, silver for the cuadrillas who
also play their parts—photographer Peter Müller created this singular
portrait of bullfighters and their "second skins." Because he worked with
Don Fermín, the designer who clothes many of the greatest Spanish, French,
and South American toreros, Müller was able to bring these men and their
teams together in his studio. The resulting photographs—including
gatefolded panoramas over 28 inches long of entire seven-man teams—reveal
both the stunning workmanship of these unique costumes and also the pride
and confidence of the bullfighters”.

Hardcover. 10”x15”, 162 pages, color illustrations, dust jacket.

In fine, new condition.  $125~
