Studieblad, onder andere met een neus en mannenkoppen 1848 - 1888

This is a study sheet by Dutch painter Anton Mauve, created between 1848 and 1888. The sheet is a collection of sketches that include the outline of a human nose, along with two other sketches depicting heads from different angles. The artwork is on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The sketchy style and the emphasis on anatomical studies reflect Mauve's artistic practice and his dedication to capturing the human form. These studies are crucial in understanding the development of his signature style, which is characterized by its focus on naturalism and realism. The sheet also showcases Mauve's early artistic exploration.
