Kop van een koe 1756 - 1817

"Kop van een koe" (Head of a Cow) is an etching created by Louis Bernard Coclers, a Dutch artist known for his animal studies. Created between 1756 and 1817, the small-scale print showcases Coclers's meticulous attention to detail. The artwork depicts a cow's head in profile, with a focus on the animal's textured hide and expressive features. Coclers's use of hatching and cross-hatching techniques creates a sense of depth and volume, capturing the cow's form in a realistic manner. This etching is a testament to Coclers's skill in representing the natural world, and his ability to convey the essence of animal life through his art.
