Grazende koe 1926

"Grazende koe" (Grazing Cow) is a 1926 print by Dutch artist Lodewijk Schelfhout, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The black and white etching depicts a single cow grazing in a field in front of a simple farmhouse and fence, with a tree providing shade overhead. This peaceful scene, executed in a realistic style, captures the essence of rural Dutch life and the artist's focus on everyday subjects. The small size of the print (118 mm x 158 mm) further emphasizes the intimacy and quietude of the subject.
