Beer (Bruun) en vos (Reinaert) Possibly 1909

This artwork, "Beer (Bruun) en vos (Reinaert)" by Bernard Willem Wierink, is a print created possibly in 1909. It's a unique example of Wierink's style, with a light brown tone and a layered, almost abstract composition. The print depicts a figure in the upper portion, with a suggestion of landscape elements, which are largely obscured in the composition. The lower portion has two large, almost square, blocks of color with subtle texture. The work currently resides in the Rijksmuseum. Wierink was a Dutch artist known for his work in printmaking, and this piece is a testament to his mastery of the technique and his unique aesthetic.
