About the piece
Painted in 1854, this characterful study by Werner Holmberg showcases the artist's ability to render animal subjects with both realism and warmth. The composition features a donkey standing in a field, its light coat contrasted against a deeply shadowed background, making it a perfect addition to rustic or traditional interiors.
