The portrait of an animal, and not the simple representation of a traditional scene, reveals a special love for nature, for the everyday beauty of the known, as well as a unique attachment to the earth. The warm glow of the animal’s fur invites us to pet it; the low horizon of the landscape, to cross it on a warm summer afternoon, surrounded by the fresh smell of freshly cut grass.
