"Battle of Centaurs and Greeks" is a pen and ink drawing by the renowned Spanish Baroque artist Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. While the exact date of this work is unknown, the drawing exemplifies Murillo's mastery of anatomy and his interest in classical mythology. The scene depicts a chaotic battle between centaurs and Greek warriors, their figures contorted in a flurry of movement and tension. This drawing, possibly a preparatory study for a larger painting, reveals Murillo's skill in capturing the dynamism and emotion of a mythological subject.
