Man staande achter paard 1600 - 1700

"Man staande achter paard" is an anonymous etching depicting a man standing behind a horse, likely created sometime between 1600 and 1700. The composition shows the horse in profile, with the man partially obscured behind its body. The artist utilizes fine lines to capture the detail of the horse's musculature and the man's attire. The etching's small size, measuring 45 mm in height and 61 mm in width, suggests it may have been a study or a preparatory drawing. The image offers insight into the artistic practices of the period, particularly the focus on meticulous representation and the use of etching as a technique for capturing detail.
