This painting shows a person riding a bull-like animal. The rider leans forward, gripping the animal’s horns. The background is mostly blank, with just a faint greenish circle and a few small marks on the ground. The ink is dark and loose, with some areas left light to show movement. The artist used quick, bold strokes to make the scene feel alive. The rider and animal seem to be in motion, almost like a snapshot of a fast ride. If you like this style, look up Ung-no Lee for more of his work.
