Donkey rider 1878

Otto Scholderer's 1878 pencil drawing, “Donkey Rider,” depicts a young boy in a hat seated on a donkey, holding the reins. The figure is drawn with delicate lines and subtle shading, suggesting a sense of movement and energy. The composition is simple yet effective, capturing the essence of a fleeting moment. The artist's keen observation of detail is evident in the boy's attire and the donkey's anatomy, which contribute to the realism of the image. “Donkey Rider” is a testament to Scholderer's skill in capturing the beauty of everyday life through his art.
