"Inspired by bulls and bullfighting in Mexico, Vavra moved to Spain in 1958 with a one-way ticket to Madrid on an old Italian ship The Valcania. With no formal training in animals, he spent six years studying the beasts. "I couldn t obtain the sort of photographs I wanted for the study, so I became a photographer out of necessity, " Vavra was quoted as saying. "I ve never been interested in the camera . I don t really consider myself a photographer. I m an artist and a storyteller. "He became immersed in the lore and life of this beast which culminated in the publishing of his book, Bulls of Iberia, in 1972. He was a personal friend of legendary matador de toros Juan Belmonte, riding with him on horseback to check his herds of black bulls, and he shared the dreams, fears, adventures and valor of other toreros, such as the American John Fulton.
