Drijver met haas 1840 - 1880

Johannes Tavenraat's "Drijver met haas" (1840-1880) is a pen and ink drawing depicting a huntsman holding a dead hare. The drawing is characterized by its detailed lines and the artist's signature style. The inscription below the huntsman, "Drijver, daar is er al weer een gevangen!" (Driver, there's another one caught!), underscores the theme of hunting and the skill of the huntsman. The drawing is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcasing a glimpse into Dutch rural life and the art of hunting in the 19th century.
