About the piece
Painted around 1885 by Willem Maris, a leading figure of the Hague School, this oil painting captures a quiet moment in the Dutch countryside. The artist's masterful use of light illuminates the central cow, while loose, atmospheric brushwork creates a sense of depth and rustic charm in the surrounding foliage and water.
