EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artistry of John Michael Rysbrack, a Flemish artist from the 17th century. Titled "Two Horses Heads" this piece is a stunning example of his mastery in pen, ink, wash, and red chalk on buff paper. The composition focuses solely on two majestic horse heads, their powerful presence emanating from the page. With intricate detailing and delicate shading techniques, Rysbrack brings these equine subjects to life. The viewer can almost feel the texture of their manes and sense the intensity in their eyes. The use of red chalk adds a touch of warmth to an otherwise monochromatic palette, creating a striking contrast against the neutral background. It highlights specific features such as bridles or subtle markings on their coats. Displayed within Yale Center for British Art's prestigious Paul Mellon Collection in the USA, this artwork serves as both a study and tribute to these magnificent creatures. Through Rysbrack's skilled hand, we are invited into an intimate exploration of horse anatomy and breed characteristics. As we gaze upon this remarkable drawing, we cannot help but be captivated by its timeless beauty. It reminds us of our deep connection with animals and how art has always been a means to celebrate nature's wonders.
