This detailed drawing of a mouse, titled "Muis, naar links", was created by the Dutch artist Jean Bernard between 1775 and 1833. Executed in a realistic style with meticulous attention to detail, the artist captures the animal's fur, whiskers, and alert expression with remarkable accuracy. Bernard's work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, showcasing the artist's talent for depicting natural subjects in a lifelike manner.
