This striking charcoal drawing by Willard Mujuru portrays a hyena cub with remarkable precision and emotional depth. The delicate lines capture the texture of its fur, while the careful shading reveals a tender, almost contemplative expression. Often misunderstood and symbolically burdened, hyenas embody resilience and survival within Africa’s landscapes. By choosing a young cub as his subject, Mujuru challenges common perceptions, inviting viewers to see vulnerability, innocence, and quiet beauty in a species usually defined by strength and ferocity. The piece is both a technical masterwork and a gentle reminder of the dignity found in all creatures of the wild. (Slight dammage left of the signature)Try it!
