This graphite drawing of a leopard seems alive despite merely being a drawing of taxidermy. The lines capture the ferocious energy of both the animal's face, and its body, getting into position. The perspective of the drawing combined with these lines, as well as careful shading, make the drawing look fully alive and three-dimensional. While the viewer's eyes are clearly drawn to the leopard's face, the rest of the body gives that face the realism it needs to capture the viewer's attention. The viewer could easily be taken out of the realism of the drawing if the anatomy wasn't accurate, but there is no cause to worry about that with this drawing.
