A robust Scottish Highlander stands among the tall grass on the heathland of Drents-Friese Wold National Park. The sun is slowly sinking behind the horizon, casting a warm glow over the landscape. The animal, with its long hair and impressive horns, forms a powerful silhouette in the soft evening light.

For lovers of wildlife, nature and the Dutch landscape, this work is an atmospheric addition to any interior. It evokes memories of walks, sunlight on the skin, and the magic of the golden hour.
