Twee koppen 1840 - 1880

"Twee koppen" is a pen and ink drawing by Johannes Tavenraat, a Dutch artist born in 1809 and died in 1881. The drawing depicts two heads in profile, possibly a study for a larger composition. The detail on the heads, especially the expressions and the way the artist captures the texture of the hair and clothing, indicates that this artwork is probably from the late 19th century. The drawing is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
