Leeuwen met een welp 1866 - 1910

"Leeuwen met een welp" (Lions with a Cub) is an etching by Dutch artist Armand Heins, dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century. The artwork, measuring 431 mm x 603 mm, captures a poignant moment of a lioness and her cub resting in a rocky cave. Heins' meticulous detail and use of shading create a sense of realism, highlighting the textured fur of the lions and the ruggedness of their natural habitat. The composition, with the lions positioned against the dark backdrop of the cave, emphasizes their powerful presence and the protective nature of motherhood.
