Grimbert geeft Reinaert stokslagen en Reinaerts aanval op een haan 1866 - 1939

This watercolor on paper by Bernard Willem Wierink, titled "Grimbert geeft Reinaert stokslagen en Reinaerts aanval op een haan," depicts two scenes from the medieval Dutch epic "Reynard the Fox." In the upper scene, Grimbert, the fox’s cunning advisor, is seen beating Reynard, while in the lower scene, Reynard, a sly trickster, attacks a rooster. Wierink’s illustrations for this classic tale are known for their whimsical details and vibrant colors, and are a testament to his skill as a draftsman and watercolorist. These drawings are now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
