Hoofd van een paard, naar rechts 1819 - 1881

"Hoofd van een paard, naar rechts" is a detailed pencil drawing by Dutch artist Johannes Tavenraat, completed between 1819 and 1881. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the head of a horse in profile, its mane flowing dramatically. Tavenraat's masterful use of shading creates a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the animal's musculature and the intricate details of the bridle. This work showcases Tavenraat's skill in capturing the beauty and power of animals through realistic portrayal, characteristic of his animal studies.
