Unknown Artist - Horses and Bulls

Animal portraits in art have ancient origins, even appearing in primitive cave paintings. For religious reasons, various types of animals appear in the works of various ancient civilizations. It was especially in the Middle Ages, within the International Gothic style, that animal depictions became widespread as true life portraits, both within works of art and in notebooks of drawings and sketches. The presence of animals as subjects in art remained constant until the contemporary era.

Both compositionally and formally, the work displays an almost unstoppable dynamic impulse. The composition itself is highly evocative, with the group seemingly coming toward us, with a vehemence suggested by the ostentatious gestures of both the animals and the man leading them. Formally, the highly animated lines that delineate tormented and complex forms help confirm this idea of ​​energetic and unstoppable movement.

The artist who created this drawing shows a remarkable technique in constructing a dynamic work full of expressionistic vigor.
