Weiland met een schaap en twee lammetjes 1641

"Weiland met een schaap en twee lammetjes" (Ewe with a Sheep and Two Lambs) is a 1641 etching by Reinier van Persijn, a Dutch Golden Age artist known for his detailed depictions of animals. This small-scale print shows a ewe and two lambs in a pastoral setting. The image is composed in a realistic style with the animals rendered in a lifelike manner, emphasizing the artist’s skill in capturing the details of animal anatomy. This work is a testament to Persijn’s interest in the natural world, a common theme in Dutch art of this period.
