Pieter Pander (1962)
Calves (three-piece set)
1999 | oil paint on canvas | 150 × 160 cm
This intimate work by Pieter Pander is not just a painting of a calf: it’s a portrait.
Pander is known mainly for his portraits of people and animals, all of which he depicts with equal respect. In this work, he communicates his subject’s image through sharp contrasts of brilliant white and deep blue. The calf itself communicates with us through its eyes.
