Paard naar rechts lopend 1565 - 1630

"Paard naar rechts lopend" is an etching created by Italian artist Antonio Tempesta between 1565 and 1630. The small-scale print depicts a horse in profile, its muscular body rendered in delicate lines. The animal strides forward with a sense of energy and purpose, its hooves just touching the ground. The minimalist background with simple grasses further emphasizes the horse as the central subject of this composition. The etching is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
