Hond in een afwasteil aan de rand van het water 1889

Auguste Danse's 1889 etching, "Hond in een afwasteil aan de rand van het water" (Dog in a wash basin at the edge of the water), depicts a dog immersed in a basin with other vessels, likely for washing. The dog appears to be enjoying the cool water, while the composition also suggests a sense of everyday life and the simple pleasures of nature. Danse's etching style, known for its meticulous detail, captures the textures and forms of the objects and the dog, creating a realistic and evocative scene. The work is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
