This etching by Louis van Engelen, titled "Kop van een hond vanachter een houten balk," depicts the head of a dog looking out from behind a wooden beam. The subtle shading and detailed rendering of the dog's fur and facial features demonstrate the artist's skill in capturing the animal's likeness. The composition, focused solely on the dog's head, invites the viewer to consider the animal's expression and personality.
