This image was taken in a car moving at 110 Km/H in a country road between Bilbao and Barcelona. It was dark and drizzily. The tough steel scupture defies all odds and stands proudly on the barren hill. It is an advertising billboard for Osborne Sherry and Wines.
The Osborne bull is a 14 metres high black silhouetted image of a bull in semi-profile, and is regarded as the unofficial symbol of Spain. The bull was created in 1956 by Mandro Prieto. There are 89 Osborne bulls throughout Spain. Nowadays the conservation of the bulls is handled by the family of Felix Tejeda.
