1816
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Otro modo de cazar a pie (Another Way of Hunting on Foot) is a 1816 ink by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows three men chasing a bull across an open field. The bull is dark and muscular, kicking up dirt as it runs. Two men on the left hold sticks, while the man on the right lunges forward with a spear. The background is simple—flat land, a lone tree, and a faint horizon line. The artist used quick, rough lines to show movement and tension. The scene looks chaotic, but the figures are drawn with sharp detail. Next, look up etching, drypoint, aquatint to see how artists create textures like this.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
