Liggende hyrde og stående ko 1631 - 1685

"Liggende hyrde og stående ko" (Reclining Shepherd and Standing Cow) is an etching by Johann Heinrich Roos, a German artist renowned for his animal paintings. The 17th-century artwork depicts a shepherd and a cow, subtly interacting in a pastoral setting. The detailed, realistic portrayal of the animals, characteristic of Roos's style, makes the print an excellent example of the "animalier" genre. The image showcases the artist's skill in capturing the textures and forms of nature. This print is part of the collection of the SMK – Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark.
