Twee vogels 1696 - 1765

This etching, titled "Twee vogels," was created between 1696 and 1765 by the Dutch artist Isaac Walraven. The artwork features two birds, one perched on a branch and the other in flight. The simple, black-and-white design is typical of Walraven's work, which often depicted natural subjects with meticulous detail. The small size of the etching, only 13mm high by 30mm wide, suggests that it was likely intended as a private study or a part of a larger collection. Walraven's skill in capturing the delicate movement and form of birds is evident in this work. The print likely belonged to a larger set or publication, featuring natural subjects like this. This example showcases the artist's ability in the fine art of printmaking.
