Creation year
1980s
Once again Fritz deals with the theme of motherhood. The process of suckling expresses well the special connection between mother animal and her offspring. Although the fantastic charcoal drawing would probably have been enough for the viewer, it was still too little for the artist: very little color in the horns, and then this bright spot of color in the middle of the picture, which emphasizes the maternity of the animal and strongly expresses the miracle of natural reproduction.
