"Kraai Ina" is an etching by Willem Witsen, a Dutch painter and printmaker active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Created around 1887-1888, the artwork depicts a crow perched on a branch, its silhouette rendered in dark tones against a lighter background. The graphic nature of the etching, with its strong contrasts and detailed textures, is characteristic of Witsen's style, which often explored themes of nature and the everyday. The artwork is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
