Liggende panter 1906

"Liggende panter" (1906) is a small etching by Dutch artist Bernard Willem Wierink. It depicts a reclining panther in profile, resting on a simple background. The use of fine lines creates a sense of realism and texture in the animal's fur. The etching is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, and its small size (70 mm x 99 mm) highlights Wierink's mastery of detail and his interest in animal subjects.
