Two Greyhounds and Two Rabbits in a Landscape

This striking oil painting, likely from the early 20th century, features a stylized depiction of two greyhounds in profile, one black and one white, dominating the foreground. Their elongated forms create a sense of dynamic movement against a muted landscape. Behind them, two smaller, stylized rabbits with distinctive striped bodies and large, expressive eyes are rendered in a similar graphic style. The background suggests a rolling landscape with hills and a vibrant orange sunset or sunrise. The artist employs bold outlines, flat planes of color, and a limited palette, characteristic of Expressionist or Fauvist movements. The overall mood is one of quiet intensity and perhaps a subtle tension between predator and prey, rendered with a unique, almost folk-art aesthetic.
