Work Description:
|
This window shade painting shows a shirtless figure riding a black, wild hog. The figure's arms are outstretched, which recalls a crucifixion scene, and he holds a bloodied knife in his right hand. The hog appears to have been stabbed and is bleeding heavily upon the earth below.
