Paard before 1937

"Paard" is a woodcut by Dutch artist Maria Hinloopen, created before 1937. The artwork depicts a horse in a dynamic pose, its legs extended in mid-stride, captured in a moment of movement. The bold black and white tones, characteristic of woodcuts, emphasize the horse's powerful form and the artist's skillful rendering of its musculature. The simplified lines and flat planes of the image suggest a stylized representation of the animal, typical of the graphic style popular during the early 20th century.
