"Kop van een wild varken" (Head of a Wild Boar) is a drawing by Dutch Golden Age painter Paulus Potter. This small-scale artwork, created between 1635 and 1654, is now housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Potter's talent for rendering animal anatomy in exquisite detail is evident in this study, which exemplifies the artist's preference for naturalism and the artistic movements of the Dutch Golden Age. The drawing is a testament to Potter's mastery of animal studies, a genre popular during this period.
