Liggende koe in een landschap met bebouwing 1666

"Liggende koe in een landschap met bebouwing" is a 1666 drawing by Dutch Golden Age painter Cornelis Saftleven. The drawing, created in a realistic style, depicts a cow lying down in a grassy field. The cow is drawn with detail and care, capturing its muscular form and its soft fur. In the distance, a village with buildings is visible, suggesting the rural setting of the cow. This artwork exemplifies Saftleven's mastery of drawing, and it's a great example of the Dutch Golden Age's attention to detail and naturalism.
