COWS IN PASTURE
Water Color
Height, 14½ inches; length, 21½ inches
Two cows, one black, spotted with white, and the other dun-colored with a white face, stand near a pool in the foreground, browsing on the reeds and coarse grass which grow there. Beyond them the view extends across the broad open pasture where other cattle are feeding, and where, in the distance, the familiar forms of windmills rise against the sky.
Signed at the lower left, Willem Maris.
