Cavalier
Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec was obsessed with horses and horse racing, often sketching them furiously at the track. This loose, spirited study of a 'Cavalier' showcases his Post-Impressionist flair for capturing movement over rigid detail. The figure, wearing a distinctive hat, sits atop a horse rendered with quick, scratchy lines that prioritize action and energy. Unlike his famous, vibrant posters of Parisian nightlife, this quiet drawing reveals his foundational skill in capturing form with minimal strokes, likely a quick observation from life.
