Koppen en rennende haas 1835 - 1845

"Koppen en rennende haas" (Heads and Running Hare) is a study in brown ink and wash on paper by Johannes Tavenraat, a Dutch artist, created between 1835 and 1845. This small-scale drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a leaping hare alongside several quickly sketched human heads, likely intended to be studies for a larger composition. The dynamic movement of the hare contrasts with the stillness of the heads, showcasing Tavenraat's observational skills and interest in capturing both animal and human forms.
