About this work
A row of bull and cow heads with pale, curving horns is lined up against a saturated red wall, their muzzles and glassy eyes facing the viewer. Above them, taped to the wall, hang printed anatomical plates labeled 'The Bull' showing its skeleton and muscle structure, alongside a hand-drawn sketch of a horned skull and an envelope. To the left, a doorway opens onto a bare golden field under a grey sky.
The heads are rendered in thick, textured strokes of black, brown, and dull rose, their horns picked out in creamy white against the flat, intense red ground. The anatomical prints are painted with cooler, cleaner tones and crisp linework that contrast with the heavier impasto of the animal heads, giving the still life a clinical yet unsettling mood.
