Landschap met koe en paard 1777

"Landschap met koe en paard" (Landscape with a Cow and Horse), a 1777 drawing by Joannis Jacobus Bijlaert, portrays a cow and a horse standing side-by-side against a plain background. The simple composition and detailed anatomical renderings exemplify Bijlaert's skill as a draughtsman. This artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum collection and provides an insight into Bijlaert's ability to capture the subtle nuances of animal forms through careful observation and precise linework.
