Description
Two people wrestling each other. The dark background accentuates the wrestlers, emphasizing the physicality of their bodies. The lighting dramatizes and intensifies the tension of the combat. The upper figure firmly holds their opponent with their left hand and twists the opponent's left arm with their right hand. The opponent, which is the lower figure, looks miserable with their mouth widely opened
