Brief Description

Ink wash drawing of a horse on light paper, rendered with dynamic brushstrokes, facing right

Detailed Description

An ink wash drawing depicts a horse in a dynamic pose on a light beige, rectangular sheet of paper. The paper appears to be creased or folded, creating a faint grid pattern across its surface. The horse, rendered in shades of dark brown and black ink, is positioned centrally, facing towards the right with its head slightly turned towards the viewer. Its front legs are lifted, with its hind legs more grounded. Expressive, varied brushstrokes define the horse; broad, sweeping strokes delineate its body, particularly its chest and hindquarters, while finer lines form its legs and facial features. The mane is a dense, textured area of darker ink, contrasting with the lighter, more open strokes of the body. The background is plain. A vertical inscription, consisting of several characters, is visible in the lower right corner of the artwork.
