Man en jachthond 1840 - 1880

"Man en jachthond" is a pen and ink drawing by Dutch artist Johannes Tavenraat, created sometime between 1840 and 1880. The sketch depicts a quick study of a man and his hunting dog, likely drawn from life. Tavenraat's loose and gestural style is evident in the swift lines that capture the movement and form of the figures. The drawing, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, exemplifies the artist's interest in capturing fleeting moments of everyday life.
