The Bull
Rembrandt van Rijn (mentioned on object), c. 1651
While on his walks in the surroundings of Amsterdam, Rembrandt came upon not only dwellings and natural settings, but also many animals. He saw this young creature standing at the water’s edge and probably captured it on the etching plate on the spot. He had made a drawing of a similar subject about ten years earlier.
