A lithograph by Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita, 'Enkele liggende geiten' ('Several Lying Goats') depicts two goats in a state of repose, set against a geometric background.
Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita was a Dutch artist of Sephardic Jewish origin, known for his graphic work, woodcuts, lithographs, and textile designs. He taught graphic techniques to M. C. Escher, who remained a lifelong friend, until Mesquita and his family were murdered in Auschwitz. His work often features animals, rendered with a distinctive, somewhat abstracted style. 'Enkele liggende geiten' ('Several Lying Goats') presents two goats in a state of repose. The composition is striking for its use of geometric forms in the background, which contrast with the organic shapes of the animals. The goats are depicted with a focus on their essential forms, using a limited range of tones to create depth and texture. The lithographic technique allows for a range of tonal variation, from the solid blacks of the goats' bodies to the lighter, more textured areas that define their forms. The background is composed of rectangular shapes, adding a sense of structure to the composition.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
