Kop van een hert, naar links 1819 - 1881

Johannes Tavenraat's "Kop van een hert, naar links" is a detailed red chalk drawing of a deer's head. Created between 1819 and 1881, the drawing captures the animal's anatomy with precision, highlighting its intricate features. Tavenraat, a Dutch artist known for his animal studies, likely produced this piece as a preparatory study for a larger work, demonstrating his meticulous attention to detail. This drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Tavenraat's skill in capturing the essence of a deer's noble presence.
