Kop van een lam 1810 - 1815

"Kop van een lam" (Head of a Lamb) is an etching created by Dutch artist Anthony Oberman between 1810 and 1815. The detailed, almost photographic-like rendering of the lamb's head showcases Oberman's mastery of this printmaking technique. The work is part of the Rijksmuseum collection, where it is displayed for art lovers to appreciate its realistic depiction of animal anatomy. Oberman's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the expressive eyes, the fluffy wool, and the lamb's slightly open mouth, all of which contribute to a sense of life and vibrancy.
