Gray Wolves Attacking a Goat 1901

Zinaida Serebriakova's "Gray Wolves Attacking a Goat" is a dynamic watercolor from 1901 that depicts the raw power of nature. The scene is set in a dark, dense forest, with a single, vulnerable goat falling victim to a pack of wolves. The use of dark browns and blues evokes a sense of foreboding, while the sharp lines and bold brushstrokes add to the sense of urgency and danger. The piece is a striking example of Serebriakova's skill in capturing the natural world, both its beauty and its brutality.
