Koeien aan een sloot 

Anton Mauve's "Koeien aan een sloot" is a tranquil landscape painting depicting two cows standing in a field near a stream. The cows are the focal point of the piece, their forms rendered with meticulous detail and the gentle, almost melancholy atmosphere that is characteristic of Mauve's work. The lush greenery and the calming presence of the water create a sense of peace and serenity, reflecting the artist's fascination with the Dutch countryside and its pastoral life.
