Twee koppen 1840 - 1880

"Twee koppen" (Two Heads) is a pencil drawing by Johannes Tavenraat, a Dutch artist known for his caricatures and portraits. The drawing depicts two heads in profile, rendered with expressive lines and exaggerated features. The work, which is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Tavenraat’s mastery of capturing human expression and his ability to convey humor through caricature. The sketch likely served as a study for a larger work and offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process.
