La Girondina, Group of sculptures in Maracay, Venezuela.
La Girondina consists of bronze statues depicting a bullfighter initiating a circular pass and a wounded bull with three stakes named Presumido.
The sculpture group arrived in Venezuela at the end of 1985, following the death of its creator, Spanish artist Emilio Laiz Campos.
The sculptures commemorate Venezuelan bullfighter César Girón and represent a specific bullfighting pass that became known as the Girondina movement.
The sculptures were originally installed at the Maestranza César Girón bullring in Maracay, which has capacity for 7000 spectators.
Both sculptures from La Girondina complex were stolen during the dismantling of the Maestranza César Girón, along with other bronze elements.
