Twee eenden 1878 - 1907

"Twee eenden" (Two Ducks) is a woodcut print by Dutch artist Theo van Hoytema, dating from 1878 to 1907. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a detailed view of two ducks, one black and one white, set against a dark, textured background. The artist's signature, "Theo Hoytema," is visible in the lower right corner of the print. Van Hoytema is known for his naturalistic depictions of animals, and this print showcases his meticulous attention to detail, particularly in capturing the plumage of the ducks. The artwork's muted color palette and textured surfaces contribute to a sense of realism, making "Twee eenden" a striking example of Van Hoytema's animal art.
