In the dog stable 1883

Adolf Eberle’s 1883 black and white drawing “In the dog stable” depicts a scene of rural life. A group of children and adults are gathered in what appears to be a barn or stable, surrounded by a litter of puppies and their mother. The artist's use of hatching creates a sense of depth and volume, highlighting the textures of the straw and the fur of the dogs. Eberle, known for his genre scenes, captures the everyday life of the rural community in a simple yet evocative manner. This artwork is a charming depiction of the bond between people and animals.
