Nachtgezicht met twee soldaten bij een liggend paard 1751 - 1816

"Nachtgezicht met twee soldaten bij een liggend paard," created between 1751 and 1816 by Reinier Vinkeles, depicts two soldiers tending to a fallen horse under a moonlit sky. This etching, now in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Vinkeles' work, showcasing his skill in capturing dramatic scenes of military life. The composition is a testament to the artist's keen eye for detail and his ability to create a sense of realism through the use of shadow and light. The artwork is a powerful reminder of the harsh realities faced by soldiers during wartime.
