Francisco Goya

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a bull in an arena. The drawing portrays a scene where a bull is centrally positioned, having trapped a figure under its neck. Another figure is positioned in the foreground raising an object, while two indistinct figures stand in the background. The scene takes place within an enclosed space, indicated by the textured background and ground. The artwork employs a limited palette.
