Staande en liggende koe 1810 - 1812

This 1810-1812 etching by Dutch artist Anthony Oberman depicts two cows, one standing and one lying down, in a field. The detailed depiction of the cows' bodies and their naturalistic pose are characteristic of Oberman's work. This artwork is housed in the Rijksmuseum and is a fine example of 19th century Dutch art. Oberman, who was known for his detailed studies of animals, skillfully captured the essence of these animals, rendering their forms with great accuracy. The etching, "Staande en liggende koe," is a testament to Oberman's mastery of his craft and a beautiful portrayal of these creatures.
