Kop van een kalf, en profil, rustend op een balk 1781 - 1822

Hermanus Fock's "Kop van een kalf, en profil, rustend op een balk" is a detailed etching depicting the profile of a calf's head resting on a beam. Created between 1781 and 1822, this small-scale print showcases Fock's meticulous attention to detail, emphasizing the calf's soft fur and the texture of the wood beneath it. This work exemplifies the Dutch artist's mastery of etching and his fascination with capturing the beauty of everyday objects. It's currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
