Alfred Dehodencq sketching horse and rider from Europe and North Africa, Gypsy, donkey & dogs

 Salvete Omnes,





today a long title to my post but a short gallop across some of the artwork by a French XIX century master Alfred Dehodencq -  wiki. 



Sketches and watercolor studies -  more on wiki commons .. 




















and  paintings of les Bohemiens (the Gypsy Roma on their wandering ) - Spanish most likely, as he had gone to Spain after 1848 AD or so.
