About this work

This painting shows a single cow lying down in a dim, shadowy forest. The animal’s fur is a mix of brown and yellow, with a lighter patch on its back. The background is mostly dark greens and blacks, giving the scene a quiet, moody feel. The cow’s horns are small and curved, and its head is turned slightly toward us. The paint looks thick in spots, especially on the animal’s body, which makes the colors stand out more. If you like this style, look up *chiaroscuro* next.
