About the Item

Title: Original French Anatomical Pencil Study of a Horse in Profile Artist: Robert Ladou (French, 1929-2014) Medium: Pencil on Paper Size: 14.25 (Height) x 19.25 (Width) Signed: No Condition: Good, with minor signs of wear and foxing. Provenance: From the artist's estate Description: This anatomical study features a carefully rendered side view of a horse, drawn in pencil with a focus on proportions and key anatomical features. The horse is depicted in profile, with a grid overlay suggesting preparation for a more detailed composition or enlargement. The grid hints at the artist’s technical approach, emphasizing precision in the horse’s form, possibly for academic or veterinary study. The soft shading on areas such as the horse’s chest and joints draws attention to its muscular structure, while the clean lines define the elegant stance. This study is likely preparatory work aimed at understanding equine anatomy, a vital skill for artists involved in naturalistic representation or scientific illustration.
