Twee schetsen van man met lang haar en hoed 1840 - 1880

Johannes Tavenraat's "Twee schetsen van man met lang haar en hoed" are two sketches of a man with long hair and a hat, likely drawn from life. The rapid and expressive lines of the drawing give a sense of immediacy, highlighting the artist's keen eye for detail. The sketches are a fine example of the artist's talent for capturing likeness and personality through a few simple strokes. The piece is held in the Rijksmuseum, and offers a glimpse into Tavenraat's artistic process.
