Renard (Fox)

Jacques-Philippe Le Bas and Jean Eric Rehn after Jean-Baptiste Oudry

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a drawing of a fox. The fox is in an animated pose, turned as if in motion or reacting to something unseen. The detailed line work highlights the fur texture and expression of the animal, with particular emphasis on its bushy tail and expressive eyes. The background is minimal, with some indications of foliage or terrain rendered in light sketching, creating a naturalistic setting for the fox.
