Grazing Cow

Paulus Potter

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two cows in a rural setting. One cow is standing and grazing in the center, while another cow is lying down to the left under a tree. In the background, there is a church spire on the right. The black and white etching features detailed lines to create texture and depth in the scene, with a clear sky above.
