Koets getrokken door vier muildieren: nachtscène 1822

Johann Georg Schinz's "Koets getrokken door vier muildieren: nachtscène" (1822) is a detailed etching that depicts a carriage drawn by four mules under a moonlit sky. The scene is set in a rural landscape, with a building in the background. Schinz was a Swiss artist known for his landscapes and animal studies, and this work showcases his keen eye for detail and ability to capture the atmosphere of a night scene. This small but impactful print is a testament to the power of etching to convey light, shadow and movement.
