Twee ruiters before 2009

"Twee ruiters" (Two Riders) is a lithograph by Dutch artist Aat Verhoog, created before 2009. The artwork features two riders on horseback, depicted in a stylized and slightly abstract manner. The rider's faces are obscured, suggesting anonymity, while the focus is on the dynamic poses of the horses. The work is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection and showcases Verhoog's distinct style, characterized by a combination of realism and graphic elements. The use of brown and blue tones creates a sense of depth and movement, while the graphic elements add a touch of abstraction to the composition. "Twee ruiters" is an example of Verhoog's exploration of human interaction with animals, capturing both the beauty and the power of their relationship.
