Koeienkop 1761 - 1784

"Koeienkop" is an etching by Dutch artist Johannes Janson, created between 1761 and 1784. The artwork depicts a close-up view of a cow's head, capturing intricate details of its features. Janson's masterful use of hatching and cross-hatching, a technique used by artists to create shading and volume, results in a remarkably lifelike and detailed depiction. This etching is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
