Bison at the Zagreb Zoo 1945

Alfred Krupa's "Bison at the Zagreb Zoo" is a 1945 graphite drawing that depicts a bison in a zoo setting. The animal is drawn in a gestural style, with short, choppy lines capturing its shaggy fur and the artist’s quick sketching style. The bison is shown in profile, its head lowered and its body partially obscured by a tree trunk, conveying the animal's presence in a confined environment. The artwork showcases Krupa's ability to capture the essence of the bison's form and personality through a loose and expressive style.
