"Stierkampf" (Bull Fight) is a notable painting by German-Jewish expressionist artist Hanns Ludwig Katz (1892–1940). Created in 1926, this work is a vivid representation of the intensity and drama of a traditional Spanish bullfight, reflecting the artist's fascination with the subject and his ability to capture movement and emotion on canvas.

Katz, who was born in Pforzheim and later worked in Berlin, was part of the vibrant Weimar art scene. His style was heavily influenced by the expressionist movement, characterized by the use of bold colors, dynamic brushstrokes, and a focus on conveying emotional experiences. "Stierkampf" exemplifies these qualities, showcasing Katz's skill in depicting the chaotic and violent nature of the bullfight, an event that has been a source of inspiration for many artists.

The painting is notable for its energetic composition, with the matador and bull locked in a deadly dance. Katz's use of color is particularly striking, with the red of the matador's cape and the bull's blood standing out against a more muted background, emphasizing the brutality and spectacle of the scene. The work's expressiveness and its portrayal of a cultural tradition through the lens of expressionism make it an important piece in Katz's oeuvre and a valuable example of early 20th-century German art.

Hanns Ludwig Katz's life and career were tragically cut short by the rise of the Nazi regime, which deemed his work "degenerate." He fled Germany in 1933, living in exile until his death in 1940. Despite the challenges he faced, Katz's art, including "Stierkampf," remains a testament to his talent and the rich cultural period in which he worked. The painting is not only a significant piece of expressionist art but also a historical document reflecting the cultural and political tensions of its time.
