This 1806-1830 etching by Johan Noman, titled "Hier ziet men paarden in de weiden, / Met ossen, ieder onderscheiden […],” is a series of six illustrations showcasing different animal behaviors. The top two illustrations show horses and oxen, each with individualistic personalities and habits. The lower illustrations depict sheep and goats, further exploring the diverse characteristics found within animal species. The title and the illustrations themselves suggest that the work is a part of a larger series, a common practice in the Dutch art tradition. The work is now housed in the Rijksmuseum, allowing art lovers to appreciate its intricate details and observational approach to animal behavior.
