Twee koeien en een schaap 1828

This etching by Dutch artist Frédéric Théodore Faber, titled "Twee koeien en een schaap" (Two Cows and a Sheep), depicts a peaceful rural scene. Created in 1828, the artwork showcases Faber's mastery of animal representation, capturing the cows' relaxed postures and the sheep's gentle gaze. The composition is balanced, with the cows positioned in the foreground and the sheep standing in the middle ground, adding depth to the scene. The simple yet detailed etching technique adds a sense of realism to the animals and the landscape, enhancing the overall tranquility of the artwork. The artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum collection, stands as a testament to the Dutch tradition of animal painting and printmaking.
