Mussen bij een bakje met voer 1900 - 1930

"Mussen bij een bakje met voer" (Sparrows at a bowl of feed) is a photographic print by Dutch photographer Richard Tepe. Taken between 1900 and 1930, the image captures a group of sparrows gathered around a bowl of birdseed on a balcony. Tepe, known for his keen observation of everyday life, uses a simple composition to highlight the birds’ natural behavior. This piece, now held in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Tepe’s ability to find beauty and interest in seemingly ordinary subjects.
