Drie kinderen kijken naar een gevallen vogel c. 1925 - 1935

"Drie kinderen kijken naar een gevallen vogel" (Three children look at a fallen bird) is a black and white ink drawing by A. Tinbergen from around 1925-1935. The drawing depicts three children in a garden setting. One child is looking down at a fallen bird on the ground. The other two children stand nearby and look at the bird with a sense of curiosity and concern. The drawing is a small work, measuring only 126 mm high by 142 mm wide. The artwork is a simple but powerful portrayal of childhood innocence and the natural world. Tinbergen's drawing captures the child's sense of wonder at nature and the empathy they feel for a creature in distress. A. Tinbergen was likely a Dutch artist as the title is in Dutch. This drawing could have been created as a piece of children's book illustration or it could be an example of A. Tinbergen's personal art practice.
