Tufted duck and billy goat, print, Left a tufted duck walking. Right a billy goat lengthwise., printmaker: Anthonie van Borssom, 1639 - 1677, paper, etching, width 152 mm x height 54 mm, water-birds: duck, he-goat, billy-goat, A black ink drawing on a pale background depicts two separate scenes divided by a vertical line. On the left, a plump bird with a long neck and short legs stands on a textured ground near a clump of tall grasses and a rough stone or mound, its feathers rendered with dense short strokes and its beak open. Small plants with elongated leaves rise beside the bird. On the right, a shaggy goat with curved horns and a beard stands facing slightly right on a similar textured ground, its fur shown with layered, flowing strokes; a small leafy plant grows nearby and scattered tufts of grass and uneven ground surround the animal. Both scenes include dark, crosshatched shading and small signature-like marks near the bottom.
