Konijnen c. 1910

"Konijnen" (Rabbits) is a woodcut by Dutch artist Bernard Willem Wierink, created around 1910. The simple yet detailed design depicts five rabbits lined up, their bodies rendered in black against a light background. The rabbits are arranged in a horizontal row, with their heads turned towards the viewer, suggesting a sense of curiosity or alertness. The image is a fine example of Wierink's talent for capturing animal subjects with both precision and expressiveness, and it is a testament to the enduring power of woodcuts as an art form. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
