24 voorstellingen van paarden, ruiters en schermutselingen 1738 - 1781

Gottfried Chodowiecki, a prolific German artist, created "24 voorstellingen van paarden, ruiters en schermutselingen" between 1738 and 1781. This series of etchings showcases a range of dynamic poses of horses and riders engaged in various activities like galloping, falling, and fighting. Chodowiecki's detailed, expressive lines capture the movement and energy of these subjects, making this a valuable resource for artists studying animal anatomy and movement. The small scale of the etchings (97 mm x 197 mm) emphasizes the focus on the subject matter itself.
