Abstract oil painting Bull and man Anatoly Tarabanov — a powerful and emotional depiction of a matador facing a charging bull, expressed through vibrant abstract forms and dynamic brushwork. The artist blends realism with abstraction, capturing the dramatic tension, movement, and ritualistic elegance of the scene. Bold strokes of red, gold, and black emphasize the contrast between strength and grace, while textured layers create depth and energy across the canvas. The matador’s shimmering costume and the bull’s vigorous stance highlight the timeless symbolism of courage, confrontation, and human determination. Tarabanov’s expressive style transforms this traditional theme into a modern, visually striking artwork, perfect for collectors who appreciate intense color, contemporary abstraction, and dramatic storytelling in fine art.
