I thank God because I had the opportunity to see the inspirational art of bullfighting of the great French matador Nimeño II. I remember him with admiration and respect.

I dedicate this retablo to the people of Nîmes, from the corner of the miracles, Mexico City.

I thank the Virgin of san Juan because I wasn’t gored by a bull when I tried to bullfight being pretty drunk.

I offer this retablo to the Lord of Chalma in a sign of gratitude for protecting me from a bull that I got in corrida and which happened to be very angry. I thought it would end badly for me on the bullfight-ring.

Alejandro Cervantes wanted to show off in front of a chick and went to bullfight in the field totally naked. However, the bull took it seriously, and Alejandro almost lost his manliness. He thanks Saint James with this retablo for the recovery.

Picador Constantino Gutierrez gives thanks to the Virgin of Juquila from his heart and with great devotion for all the good she did to him when he debuted at the bull-ring in the capital receiving an ovation from the audience.
