Castilla is left without his crutch, without the Castilla Crutch:
Pablo Lozano has died at the age
of
90
from the coronavirus goring.
Lozano, beyond his career as a bullfighter in the 50s of the last century, was Don Pablo.
That gift that confers superior rank with which the world of the bull referred to the eldest of the Lozano.
The eldest of the triad of the Lozano brothers -Pablo, Eduardo and José Luis-, a saga from which Manolo Lozano always escapes.
By age and philosophy.
Saying the Lozano is saying the history of bullfighting for the last 80 years.
Don Pablo is also translated as forge and cradle of figures.
Palomo Linares, José María Manzanares (father and son), Juan Antonio Ruiz "Espartaco", César Rincón, Manolo Caballero ... He forged all of them and took them all in the company of his brothers.
Although not all the constituents appear in the aforementioned list.
The fan opens and unfolds a trail of names ranging from Manuel Benítez "El Cordobés" to Curro Romero.
From El Juli to Castella (already in the hands of his son Luis Manuel, like others).
From Eugenio de Mora to Vicente Barrera.
Don Pablo was not a manager of numbers, nor an administrator, but
the oracle of his bullfighters
.
The mirror of the temple, the repository of fears, the guardian of the wild field.
There, Don Pablo was also unbeatable.
As the
owner of the secret of seeing the bull in the field
.
The secret of his eyes, the absolute reliability.
The eternal commitment to the crafts, the drawing also pursued in his livestock: Alcurrucén.
The last bastion of Núñez in the elite of the cattle ranches
, the staunch defense of the fine lines of the encaste.
Even within the great Lozano house, not always unanimous.
But Don Pablo was the most bullfighter of the brothers.
As a teacher of teachers he received the tribute of his own for his 87th birthday.
He was absolutely happy between El Cordobés, Espartaco, Rincón, Caballero, De Mora ... They all fought for him.
Benítez, at 83, gave it his all once again.
I was a privileged witness of that.
Of reverential respect.
Of laughter.
From the memories.
Don Pablo, Eduardo and José Luis formed the triumvirate and forged an empire from the throne of Madrid: the government of the most important square in the world between 1990 and 2004 was the zenith of their career outside the ring.
The ascent to the top was not easy from the organization of that first meeting in Úbeda in 1951 to the
Opportunity of Vista Alegre
-The Opportunity to dry- and the almost two decades of exile as businessmen from Bogotá, Medellín, Cartagena de Indias, Quito ...
Precisely the 51 of the last century was the year of its alternative.
At the hands of
Luis Miguel Dominguín
, Don Pablo became a bullfighter on September 25 in Barcelona.
The bulls belonged to Samuel Flores' livestock and had Manolo González and José María Martorell as cartel companions.
It was confirmed in Madrid on May 18 at the hands of Antonio Bienvenida.
His career as a sober representative of Toledo bullfighting was arduous and not without harshness: on May 3, 1953 he was seriously injured in Figueras.
As the only sword he conquered Madrid and his most important victory against six bulls from Barcial in 1957, in the Montepío bullfight.
That gave a vital boost to his career.
Beyond the successes in the arena, the respect of the greatest was placed for their figure outside of them.
As a teacher of teachers.
As a forge and forge of figures.
That secret of the bull, that mystery of the temple,
which, today, Don Pablo Lozano already teaches on the other shore.
