"Staand en liggend schaap en liggende geit met bel om" (Standing and Lying Sheep and a Lying Goat with a Bell) is an etching by Johann Heinrich Roos, created in 1665. Rooted in the tradition of Dutch animal painting, the artwork depicts a relaxed scene of livestock in a pastoral landscape, showcasing Roos's keen observation of animal anatomy and naturalism. The composition, a balance of standing and lying figures, creates a sense of peaceful calm, typical of Roos's artistic vision. The etching is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
