This drawing by Michael Snijders, created between 1610 and 1672, is a study sheet filled with detailed sketches of various figures and animals. The sheet showcases Snijders' skill in capturing the anatomy and movement of his subjects, from a rearing horse to a pair of fighting wolves. The composition is a mix of realistic depictions and fantastical creatures, suggesting a focus on observation and imagination.
