This is a drawing by Nicolaes Berchem, a Dutch Golden Age artist known for his landscape paintings. The drawing depicts two sleeping dogs, one curled up and the other lying flat, a common subject in his works. The simplicity and detail in the composition highlights Berchem’s ability to capture the beauty of everyday life. The drawing's loose, expressive strokes showcase his mastery of pencil and are typical of his drawings. The work is held in the Städel Museum, a major art museum in Frankfurt, Germany.
