"A Figure Falling from a Horse and Studies of Heads" is a drawing attributed to Salvator Rosa, an Italian Baroque painter, poet, and printmaker known for his dramatic landscapes, battle scenes, and stormy marine paintings. This work, executed in ink and wash on paper, showcases Rosa's skill in capturing dynamic movement and human expression. The central image depicts a figure in a perilous descent from a horse, conveying a sense of urgency and motion that is characteristic of Rosa's energetic style. Surrounding this central scene are various studies of heads, which demonstrate Rosa's interest in physiognomy and his ability to render the human face in diverse emotional states and from different angles.

Salvator Rosa (1615–1673) was active in Naples, Rome, and Florence, and his work often reflected his fascination with the wild and untamed aspects of nature, as well as the darker elements of human experience and mythology. "A Figure Falling from a Horse and Studies of Heads" is reflective of his artistic themes and his penchant for capturing the more tumultuous aspects of life and the natural world.

The drawing is significant for its demonstration of Rosa's draftsmanship and his approach to composition, where he often combined studies of different subjects on a single sheet. This practice was common among artists of the period as a way to explore various ideas and to make efficient use of materials. The work is also an example of Rosa's contribution to the Baroque movement, particularly in the way it conveys drama and movement, which were central to the Baroque aesthetic.

As with many old master drawings, the provenance and attribution of this work may be subject to scholarly debate, and its current location or ownership might not be well-documented, which can be common for works on paper from this era. Nonetheless, "A Figure Falling from a Horse and Studies of Heads" remains an important piece for understanding Salvator Rosa's artistic legacy and the broader context of 17th-century Italian art.
