“The Hog” (pencil sketch, 1643)
With inspiration from “The Hog” (pencil sketch, 1643)
Addressed to: Rembrandt van Rijn
The lazy hog lies
On her side, she’s unperturbed
Kids play in the grass
A butcher awaits
Lazy Hog lies ignorant
Harvest is her fate
Etcher of this scene
Have you pity for the sow?
Your heart warms the cold
