Study of a Tiger

Wilhelm Kuhnert’s "Study of a Tiger" is a striking exploration of the raw beauty and power of one of nature’s most majestic creatures. This artwork focuses solely on the tiger, presenting it in profile with meticulous attention to detail in its muscular form, rich orange coat, and bold black stripes. The tiger’s stance is one of quiet strength, captured mid-movement, as if it is carefully surveying its surroundings.

The background is minimalistic, allowing the tiger to dominate the composition and further emphasizing its regal presence. Kuhnert’s signature style shines through in the fluidity of his brushstrokes, which bring a sense of vitality to the creature’s fur and a naturalistic texture to the scene. The interplay of light and shadow across the tiger’s body enhances its dimensionality and lifelike quality.
