Studies van een hert 1780 - 1855

"Studies van een hert," a detailed pencil drawing created between 1780 and 1855 by Dutch artist Jan Dasveldt, features three studies of a deer. Dasveldt, born in 1770 and known for his meticulous depictions of animals, captures the deer in various poses. The drawing showcases his mastery of anatomical detail and his ability to convey the animal's grace and naturalism. This work is a testament to the artist's dedication to the study of animal anatomy and exemplifies the popularity of animal subjects in Dutch art during the 18th and 19th centuries.
