Sluierstaart 1892 - 1931

"Sluierstaart" is an etching by Dutch artist Henri Verstijnen, created between 1892 and 1931. The detailed artwork showcases a single goldfish, its scales and fins rendered with meticulous precision against a teal background. The artist's masterful use of line and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism, making the fish appear almost lifelike. Verstijnen, known for his illustrations and etchings, often depicted animals and nature, capturing the beauty and intricacy of the natural world in his work.
