About this work

This painting shows a dead deer hanging upside down by its hind legs. Its fur is a mix of brown and white, and its legs are tied together with a rope. The background is a dark, earthy brown, like a barn or storage space. The deer’s head hangs low, almost touching the ground. The lighting is dim, making the animal’s fur look patchy and real. Next, look up Nicolae Grigorescu.
