Image description
This is a drawing of a horse's head and neck. The drawing features the profile of a horse, capturing the details of its face, ears, and the texture of its neck and mane. The use of shading and lines suggests the animal's musculature and the flow of its mane. The background is plain, and the illustration is signed with an artist’s monogram within a circle near the base.
