"Biches au repos" (meaning "Does at Rest") is a lithograph created by Karl Bodmer, a Swiss-American artist known for his detailed depictions of Native American life and landscapes. The lithograph shows a group of deer resting in a wooded area, with a mature buck lying in the foreground, a doe standing alert, and two fawns nestled together. Bodmer's precise rendering of the animals and the naturalistic setting highlights his keen observational skills and his interest in capturing the beauty and tranquility of the natural world. This piece reflects the Romantic era's fascination with nature and its influence on the artistic imagination.
