"De kraai Ina" is a lithograph by Dutch artist Willem Witsen, created between 1887 and 1888. It is a striking example of Witsen's artistic style, characterized by its minimalist approach and its emphasis on the natural world. The artwork depicts a crow in silhouette, rendered in gray against a textured brown background. The simplified form of the crow and the absence of detail create a sense of stillness and contemplation. "De kraai Ina" is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and stands as a testament to the Dutch artist's fascination with the everyday and the ordinary.
