A vertically oriented black chalk drawing on tan paper with irregular, torn edges features various anatomical sketches. In the lower left, a bull's head with short horns faces right. To the right, two separate studies focus on the legs and hindquarters of the animal in different orientations. These gestural sketches are rendered in muted gray tones that contrast against the textured, brown surface of the paper.
