About this work

The painting depicts a blue plate with a white bull at its center, surrounded by various figures. The bull is adorned with a golden necklace and appears to be emerging from the water, with its front legs raised and its head turned to the right. A man sits on the bull's back, holding a golden horn in his right hand. In the background, there are several other figures, including a man on the left who appears to be dancing or celebrating, and a group of people on the right who seem to be watching the scene unfold. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of joy and celebration. The use of blue and white colors gives the painting a sense of calmness and serenity, while the golden accents add a touch of luxury and sophistication. The painting is reminiscent of the work of the artist 987_person.
