A horizontally oriented, black-inked lithograph depicts a bullfight from the arena floor. Centered, Mariano Ceballos, with dark hair in profile, sits atop a rearing black bull while pointing a spear toward a spotted bull. Sketchy, grainy lines texture the animals and ground. Other figures stand near the perimeter. In the background, a shadowy crowd fills tiered seating. Cursive text at the bottom reads, "El famoso Americano, Mariano Ceballos."
