Ridder met twee honden 1893

Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst's "Ridder met twee honden" (Knight with two dogs) is a 1893 etching, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artwork portrays a knight standing with two dogs, likely hounds, and a bowl. The scene is set in a woodland area with a background of tall trees, suggesting a mystical or fantastical theme. Holst, known for his symbolist and Art Nouveau leanings, captures a sense of mystery and the unknown through the knight's solemn gaze and the atmospheric details of the background.
