Rodents
1893
Talk about a rough day for these little guys! Ferdinand von Wright captures a stark, realistic scene of rodents, likely specimens for scientific study, dated October 3rd, 1893 in the corner. The top creature hangs upside down from a twig, while its companions lie on a patch of green, their fur rendered with incredible, scratchy detail. You can even see the artist testing his colors in the top left, proving that even master painters play with their palette before the final stroke.
