Ever since I was a kid growing up in Ogden Utah back in the early 80's, I've been fascinated by the Spanish bullfight. I even searched out books on bullfighting at the Weber County library, where I found and read "Death in the Afternoon" by Ernest Hemingway. I'm probably the only kid in Utah to have ever read that book. Now here we are 40 years later and I still enjoy learning about and keeping up with the bullfights.

The Mystery at Rosa's Cantina

The Mystery at Rosa's Cantina

By Jack Sorenson (American, b. 1955)

Oil on canvas

I've seen this painting pop up several times on different social media sites over the years. I figured I might as well post it here and save it. Not sure if "Rosa's Cantina" is the same one as mentioned in the Marty Robbins song or not. I guess you would kind of have to figure it is but ... 

Whether it is or not it is kind of a cool paining. 

Here is a link to a post I did about the Marty Robbins' Rosa's Cantina trilogy.
