Paardenhoofd met open bek, naar rechts before 1841

"Paardenhoofd met open bek, naar rechts" (Horse head with open mouth, to the right) is a detailed pencil drawing by Dutch artist Joannes Bemme, dating from before his death in 1841. The drawing, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases a close-up view of a horse's head, capturing its powerful features with striking accuracy. Bemme's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the portrayal of the horse's mane, its open mouth, and its expressive eyes. This small-scale work demonstrates the artist's skilled hand and his interest in animal anatomy.
