Man met ezel 1874

"Man met ezel" (Man with Donkey) is an 1874 etching by Johannes Arnoldus Boland, a Dutch artist known for his landscapes and animal studies. The artwork depicts a man sitting beside a donkey, with the animal's saddled back turned towards the viewer. The scene, likely a rural landscape, is rendered in fine detail with a delicate use of light and shadow. This etching showcases Boland's mastery of capturing the textures and forms of animals and the quiet beauty of everyday life.
