Koppen 1840 - 1880

This graphite drawing by Johannes Tavenraat, titled "Koppen," is a study of five different heads, rendered in profile. Created between 1840 and 1880, the work captures a range of expressions and individual features. Tavenraat's quick sketches convey the essence of his subjects with expressive lines and subtle shading. The Rijksmuseum houses this small drawing, measuring only 166 mm in height and 75 mm in width.
