"Cape Buffalo" is a 1916 graphite drawing by German artist Wilhelm Kuhnert (1865-1926). The artwork depicts three Cape Buffalo, two in profile and one from the back, revealing the artist's keen eye for anatomy and detail. The drawing is likely a study for a larger painting, and exemplifies Kuhnert's expertise in animal portraiture, a genre that was popular in the early 20th century.
