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.

The King's Camelopard
Located in Amsterdam, NL
Charles Frederick de Brocktorff (1775–1850)
‘Camelopard – a present from the Pacha of Egypt to the King – at Malta on its way to England’
Signed and dated C.F. de Brocktorff. / 1827. lower right, inscribed as titled in the painted margins lower centre. Pencil and watercolour heightened with gold paint and gum arabic on paper, 36.8 x 27.9 cm
A gift so majestic, it made kings blush, and a gift so grand, it would startle Europe into a craze. Pasha Muhammad Ali of Egypt (1805-1848) did it in 1827: he sent to Europe three magical spotted, horned creatures, each with a neck reaching the skies and legs as long as a house is high.

A curious sight for Europeans, who had not seen such a beast since the Medici giraffe in 1487.
Few animals created more of a stir in Europe than these royal...
