Ploegend paard op een heuvel 1899

Pieter Dupont's 1899 "Ploegend paard op een heuvel" is a detailed black and white etching that depicts a horse pulling a plow in a field. The horse is depicted in a laborious, powerful pose, with its muscles tense and its mane flowing in the wind. In the background, rolling hills are punctuated by trees and the landscape is meticulously rendered, showcasing Dupont's attention to detail. The scene illustrates the hard work and toil of rural life, a common theme in 19th century art.
