Boer melkt een koe 1892 - 1940

"Boer melkt een koe" (Farmer Milks a Cow), an ink drawing by Henri Verstijnen, depicts a farmer seated on a three-legged stool, milking a black and white cow. The farmer is wearing a cap and a loose shirt. The scene is simple and the linework is loose, capturing the movement of the farmer's hand and the cow's tail. The drawing, created between 1892 and 1940, is a small work, measuring only 115 mm by 144 mm. Verstijnen, a Dutch artist, was known for his drawings and illustrations, often focusing on rural themes and the lives of farmers.
