About the piece

Painted in 1885 by Slovak artist Ľudovít Pitthordt, this oil study captures a tender moment between a child and his pet. The dramatic contrast between the deep, moody background and the bright white of the rabbit and the boy's red cap creates a striking visual presence, rendered with confident, painterly brushwork.
