"Village Bullfight" (Spanish: "La Tauromaquia en un Pueblo") is a renowned etching by the Spanish Romantic painter and printmaker Francisco de Goya y Lucientes (1746–1828). Created as part of his famous "La Tauromaquia" series, which consists of 33 prints depicting various aspects of bullfighting, this work reflects Goya's fascination with the traditional Spanish spectacle and its cultural significance. The series was produced between 1815 and 1816, during a period when Goya was deeply engaged with printmaking and exploring the darker and more satirical elements of human nature and society.

In "Village Bullfight," Goya captures the raw energy and chaos of a bullfight taking place not in a formal arena, but in the more informal and communal setting of a village. The etching is characterized by its dynamic composition, with figures of both spectators and participants scattered throughout the scene, emphasizing the communal nature of the event. The work showcases Goya's skill in rendering dramatic contrasts of light and shadow through the aquatint technique, which he used to great effect throughout the "La Tauromaquia" series.

The piece is also notable for its social commentary, as Goya often used his art to critique aspects of Spanish society. In "Village Bullfight," he may be commenting on the brutality and the popular fascination with violence, as well as the class distinctions evident in the varied attire and behavior of the spectators. The work is a testament to Goya's ability to blend artistic mastery with incisive observation, making it a significant contribution to the canon of Western art and an important document of Spanish cultural history.

As with many of Goya's works, "Village Bullfight" is held in high esteem by art historians and critics for its technical innovation, expressive power, and complex interplay of themes. It remains an influential piece that continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and cultural insights into early 19th-century Spain.
