The Small Lion Hunt (with Two Lions) is a 1632 ink by Rembrandt, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a messy, tangled scene with two lions and a group of people. The lines are loose and scratchy, like they were drawn fast. Trees and a rocky ground fill the background, but everything looks rough and unfinished. The artist used a technique that lets ink pile up in lines, making some areas darker. This isn’t a polished drawing—it’s raw, almost like a quick study. Next, check out etching to see how artists like Rembrandt made prints this way.
Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (15 July 1606 – 4 October 1669), known mononymously as Rembrandt, was a Dutch Golden Age painter, printmaker, and draughtsman.
