With his lance held high and determination etched on his face, the hunter fearlessly charges towards a massive bull, ready to strike with precision. The attention to detail in this woodcut is remarkable - every line and stroke brings life to the action-packed moment. The artist, Gonzalo Argote de Molina, expertly captures the intensity of the chase as both man and beast are locked in a battle of strength and agility.
