Heavy and powerful, the simple lines of this
feisty animal call to mind the great bullfights of
Spain. This animal moves swiftly and with each
move one can see the strength of the muscles.
The rich blue of the lapis heightens the sense
and adds a sense of eroticism. The bull, a
symbol of masculine power, strength and virility,
lowers his head as if he’s ready to push or ram
something with all his strength. Of course, he’s
preparing for an encounter with a bullfighter, but
the swift powerful movement makes one think
that he has the power to push the world with his
strength.
