Eagles with fox 1944

Antonio Ligabue's 1944 painting, "Eagles with fox," depicts a dramatic scene of a bird of prey attacking a fox in a lush, green landscape. The eagle's wings are spread wide, its sharp talons grasping the fox's neck. The fox's open mouth and bared teeth suggest a struggle for survival. Ligabue, known for his self-taught artistic style, utilizes vibrant, earthy colors and a thick impasto technique, creating a sense of texture and immediacy in the artwork. "Eagles with fox" is a testament to Ligabue's fascination with the natural world, capturing a raw and powerful moment in the animal kingdom.
