Vier koeien in een wei 1836 - 1912

This small, detailed drawing by Dutch artist Isaac Weissenbruch depicts four cows in a meadow. The composition is dominated by the horizon line and a sky with stylized clouds formed with hatched lines. Weissenbruch, known for his detailed landscapes, provides a glimpse into the Dutch countryside. The artwork, titled "Vier koeien in een wei," is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection and is an excellent example of his ability to capture the essence of nature through a simplified and expressive style.
