This detailed drawing by Pieter van Bloemen captures a saddle horse from behind, highlighting its musculature and the intricate details of its saddlery. The artist’s meticulous brushstrokes create a sense of realism, emphasizing the horse's powerful build and the weight of its load. The drawing likely served as a study for a larger painting, demonstrating van Bloemen’s keen observation and mastery of animal anatomy. This work exemplifies his skill in capturing the details of everyday life and showcasing the beauty of the natural world.
