Hond naar rechts 1780 - 1851

"Hond naar rechts" (Dog to the Right) is a graphite drawing by Pieter Janson, a Dutch artist active in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This small-scale work, measuring only 71 mm by 87 mm, depicts a dog in profile, its body rendered with detailed hatching, conveying its texture and form. The dog's posture and gaze create a sense of alertness and anticipation. Janson's meticulous depiction of the animal suggests a keen interest in naturalism and observation, characteristic of his artistic practice.
