Hoofd van een paard met oogkleppen op, naar rechts 1820

This pencil drawing, “Hoofd van een paard met oogkleppen op, naar rechts,” created in 1820 by Jean Bernard, depicts the head of a horse with blinders, viewed from the side. Bernard (1765-1833) was a Dutch artist known for his detailed animal studies, and this work is a fine example of his meticulous draftsmanship. The horse’s head is rendered with striking realism, capturing the animal's musculature and expression. The drawing is currently part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
