En gedebuk 1930

"En gedebuk" (A billy goat), a 1930 black and white etching by Danish artist Alexander Blom (1860-1934), depicts a single goat standing on a path in the foreground, set against a dark, detailed background of foliage. The image is characterized by bold outlines and precise hatching, creating a sense of depth and texture. This small work (125 x 160 mm) showcases Blom's talent for capturing the essence of his subject matter with expressive detail. Now on display at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, the artwork is a testament to Blom's continued interest in animal studies throughout his career.
