Nicolaes Pietersz Berchem Reclining Pissing
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print titled "Reclining and a urinating cow" by Nicolaes Pietersz. Berchem, we are transported back in time to the 17th century. The Dutch artist's attention to detail is evident as he captures a serene countryside scene with remarkable precision. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the reclining cow, peacefully resting on the lush grass. Its relaxed posture exudes tranquility, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate the simplicity of rural life. However, it is not just its repose that catches our eye; rather, it is an unexpected moment frozen in time - a cow relieving itself. Berchem's choice to depict such a candid act adds an element of realism and humor to his work. It reminds us that even amidst idyllic landscapes, nature remains unapologetically raw and uncensored. The composition showcases Berchem's mastery of light and shadow, enhancing the overall atmosphere of the piece. Soft sunlight filters through tree branches above, casting gentle dappled patterns on both the reclining cow and its surroundings. Quint Lox has skillfully captured this artwork from Liszt Collection in their print rendition. Through their lens, they have preserved Berchem's unique vision for generations to come. This print serves as a testament to both artistic talent and historical preservation – allowing us all to marvel at this charming slice of Dutch countryside life centuries later.
