"The Abduction of the Bulls" is a black and white drawing by Peter Paul Rubens, a leading figure of Flemish Baroque art. This drawing features a dramatic scene, likely inspired by the myth of the abduction of the Sabine women, depicting a group of men forcefully carrying away bulls while others struggle to resist. Rubens' masterful use of shading and detail brings to life the chaotic and violent nature of the event. The dynamic composition and powerful figures are characteristic of Rubens' style.
