About the Artist:
Paulus Potter was a Dutch-born artist known for painting animals in landscapes. His father and father-in-law both inspired a love of art, with the latter introducing him to the Dutch elite. He worked with steadfast pace to produce around a hundred paintings before succumbing to tuberculosis at twenty-eight.
