Being Branded

In the painting there are four men; one of them has his foot on the thigh of a brown bull. The men and the bull are centered in the painting. Two men are pulling the bull's head down and he is laying on his side. I can tell that he is struggling to get up because his head is jerked up and the bulls legs are in the air. The man that has his foot on his thigh, is branding his thigh. It's not clear what the brand is. In front of the bull there is a fire pit and there are sticks to the right of the pit. One man is standing in front of the pit. Also there is a tainted silver pale adjacent to the man.In the background there are many bulls grazing. There is also a large cactus plant to the left side of the painting. Very faint in the distance, there are five birds flying around. In the very back of the painting there are two horses in between all the bulls, with men riding there backs. The sky is gloomy and gray; there are no clouds either. Al l men in the painting have brown hats on. The painting is very interesting and you can easily tell the emotions surrounding the painting, which is stern.
