Grazing Cows on the Island of Saltholm is a 1892 by Unknown, a Impressionism work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a grassy field with cows grazing. The sky is light blue with soft clouds, and the grass is painted in green and yellow strokes. In the distance, more cows and a few people are scattered across the landscape. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured look. This style is meant to show light and movement in nature. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
