Studies van geiten 1816

Jean Louis Demarne's "Studies van geiten," a sheet of anatomical studies of goats, was created in 1816. The piece, which depicts a variety of angles and poses of goat heads and limbs, is a fine example of the artist's keen eye for detail and his interest in animal anatomy. Demarne, a prominent animal painter of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, used these studies as preparatory work for his larger paintings of farm animals. The piece, a testament to the artist's meticulous approach to his craft, provides a fascinating glimpse into his artistic process.
