Pissing Cow

Paulus Potter

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a side view of a cow on the right and two sheep on the left. The horizon is low, with some buildings and trees far in the distance. The animals are detailed with fine lines, creating a textured look. The color scheme is monochromatic, using black and white shades for depth and form, with shadows and texture created by cross-hatching. Birds are flying in the sky above the rural scene.
