"I modelled the Lying Bull sculpture to represent the fictional Ferdinand the bull. When he was young Ferdinand did not enjoy butting heads with other young bulls. Instead he preferred to lie and smell the flowers. One day, five men come to the pasture to choose a bull for the fights. Ferdinand was on his own when he accidentally sat on a bee. Upon getting stung he ran wildly across the field, snorting and stamping. Mistaking Ferdinand for a mad bull, the men renamed him “Ferdinand the Fierce” and took him away to be killed in the ring in Madrid.
All the beautiful ladies of Madrid turned out to see the handsome matador fight “Ferdinand the Fierce”. However, when Ferdinand was led into the ring, he was delighted by the sweet smell of the flowers in the ladies’ hair. He lay down in the middle of the ring to enjoy them, upsetting all the people who’d come to see the fight. Ferdinand was then sent back to his pasture, where to this day he is still lying happily smelling the flowers.
