Twee liggende koeien 1803 - 1841

Johannes van Cuylenburgh's "Twee liggende koeien" is a detailed etching depicting two cows resting in a meadow. The artist's masterful use of line creates a sense of depth and texture, capturing the animals' soft forms and the surrounding foliage. This print, likely made between 1803 and 1841, exemplifies van Cuylenburgh's interest in depicting the natural world with meticulous detail. The work is a prime example of Dutch realism, which was known for its meticulous rendering of everyday scenes and the everyday lives of people and animals.
