Preparatory study, charcoal sketch by Maurice de Bus – Gilded frame, 32 x 42 cm

A preparatory charcoal study by maurice de bus depicting two horses in an expressive and dynamic style. The line is energetic and rapid, characteristic of a sketch where the artist explores the movements and structure of the subject. The work, signed "md" in the lower left corner, is a testament to maurice de bus's talent for capturing the essence of movement through a minimalist yet powerful drawing. The drawing, measuring 32 X 42 cm, is mounted on a cream mat and framed in a classic gilt frame, emphasizing the simplicity and elegance of the work. The frame is in good overall condition, with slight signs of wear on the gilding, signs of its age. This sketch is a beautiful representation of the artist's creative process and lends itself equally well to a modern or classic interior, adding a timeless artistic touch.
