Travel Poster Portugal Ribatejo Campino Cowboy Bullfighting - Original vintage Portuguese travel advertising poster for Ribatejo Portugal, featuring a dynamic mid-century design by the noted Portuguese artist and illustrator Oskar (Oscar Pinto Lobo; 1913-1995) depicting a traditional campino Portuguese cowboy wearing a signature green stocking cap and red vest mounted atop a galloping brown horse, driving a pair of black bulls with a long wooden goad or lance, set over a large green circle and a vibrant yellow sun.

Although formally dissolved in 1976 and largely absorbed into the Santarem District, its historical territory is now divided across several modern administrative and statistical subregions.
