David onthoofdt Goliath 1516 - 1566

This drawing by Flemish artist Lambert Lombard depicts the biblical story of David slaying Goliath. Created between 1516 and 1566, the artwork is a study of human anatomy and movement, emphasizing the dynamic poses of the two figures. The loose, expressive lines suggest a quick sketch, capturing the essence of the moment. This small-scale drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into Lombard's artistic process and his interest in the human form.
