Groep herten in het open veld 1882

Conrad Ahrendts' 1882 etching, "Groep herten in het open veld," depicts a group of deer in a clearing. The print, measuring 158 mm by 238 mm, features a detailed rendering of the animals, with a focus on their natural grace and movement. The artist's meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the foliage and the deer's antlers, creates a sense of realism. The composition highlights the deer as the central subject, while the surrounding landscape serves as a serene backdrop. The work is a testament to Ahrendts' skill as a printmaker and his fascination with the natural world.
