Twee brasems op een rivieroever 1664

Albert Flamen's 1664 etching, "Twee brasems op een rivieroever," depicts two bream fish, a common freshwater species, laid out on a riverbank. The detailed engraving showcases the fish's scales and textures with precision, a hallmark of Flemish art. This print was part of a larger series by Flamen, focusing on the diverse fauna of the Netherlands, highlighting both artistic skill and scientific observation of the natural world. The artwork, "Twee brasems op een rivieroever," is an example of "animal studies," popular in 17th-century Dutch art.
