This etching, "Head of a Young Bull," is part of Johann Christian Reinhart's "Die Zweite Thierfolge" series, created in 1803. The work depicts a close-up view of a bull's head, with the animal's large, dark eyes looking directly at the viewer. The artist's masterful use of line creates a sense of realism and detail in the bull's fur, horns, and facial features. "Head of a Young Bull" is a fine example of the artist's skill in capturing the natural world through the medium of etching, offering a glimpse into the artistic traditions of the early 19th century.
