The good fortune is a singular work, very representative of the narrative painting of Gloria Ferrer. Framed in the world of bullfighting, the image reflects the scene of a bullfighter who is waiting for the opinion of the woman who reads her luck in a crystal ball.

Superstition is an element closely linked to the world of bullfighting. The bullfighters, brave in the eyes of the spectator, are in turn very superstitious people, who usually entrust themselves to virgins and saints and carry with them religious images to those who are entrusted before carrying out their work, often following methodically exact rituals. You can get closer to the subject by reading the interesting article "Superstitions" published in El País by the journalist Javier Manzano.

The scene goes further, making a comical nod to the viewer, because while the bullfighter is awaiting his future in the bullring, the crystal ball seems not to warn him of the adventure that is suggested between his wife and the "picador" "

Colorful and fun, this work once again shows the more human side of the bullfighter, who far from being a figure magnified by success, shows us his doubts ..

The painter's brush guides us through the detail of her four characters. Their expressions, their costumes and the composition of the work, recreate a satirical atmosphere that does not leave indifferent.
