Twee dieren, mogelijk ezels 1848 - 1888

"Twee dieren, mogelijk ezels" is a charcoal drawing by Anton Mauve, created between 1848 and 1888. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, features a sketchy and impressionistic style. The subject, two animals that may be donkeys, are depicted in a quick and loose manner, suggesting a sense of movement and energy. Mauve's use of charcoal creates a sense of depth and shadow, while the overall composition conveys a sense of immediacy and spontaneity. This work exemplifies Mauve's early artistic development and his exploration of animal subjects.
