Drie liggende schapen 1822 - 1899

"Drie liggende schapen" (Three Reclining Sheep), an etching by Dutch artist Simon van den Berg, depicts three sheep resting in a field. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the sheep's woolly coats and the textured grass. Van den Berg was known for his detailed renderings of animal subjects and his ability to capture the essence of their forms. The print, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, serves as a testament to the artist's skill and the enduring fascination with animal subjects in art.
