Koe 1834 - 1903

"Koe," a pencil sketch by Johan Hendrik Weissenbruch, depicts a single cow grazing in a field. Weissenbruch was a Dutch painter known for his landscapes and animal studies. The simplicity of the drawing, housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases his talent for capturing the essence of his subjects. The sketch likely served as a preparatory study for a larger painting, demonstrating Weissenbruch's meticulous observation of nature.
