Koeien op een open plek, bij wilgen 1860 - 1892

"Koeien op een open plek, bij wilgen" is a black and white etching created by Dutch artist Jan Vrolijk between 1860 and 1892. The work depicts a pastoral scene with a herd of cows standing in a field, framed by a line of willow trees. The artist's signature, "Jan Vrolijk", can be seen at the lower right corner of the artwork. Vrolijk's style is characterized by a focus on nature, often depicting scenes of rural life. This etching, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies his realist approach, capturing the subtle details of light and shadow in the landscape.
