Galopperend paard, mannen- en vrouwenkoppen en een boerin 1864 - 1880

This pencil drawing, titled "Galopperend paard, mannen- en vrouwenkoppen en een boerin" (Galloping Horse, Men's and Women's Heads and a Peasant Woman), was created between 1864 and 1880 by Dutch artist Johannes Tavenraat. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a collection of sketches that showcases Tavenraat's ability to capture the essence of his subjects through quick, expressive lines. The drawing features a variety of figures including a galloping horse, a woman, several male heads, and a peasant woman holding a basket. These studies demonstrate Tavenraat's keen observation and his interest in the human form and the details of everyday life.
