About the artwork

This colour photograph takes us into the unspoilt beauty of the nature reserve behind the Else bridges in Bünde and shows a landscape normally dominated by the majestic presence of Scottish Highlands cattle.

In the centre of the picture is the gate of a field where the characteristic Scottish Highlands cattle often graze. These majestic animals are the epitome of grace and strength and blend harmoniously into their natural surroundings. Their appearance in the painting reminds us of the importance of conservation and the preserved beauty of the landscape.

The sun appears above the gate as a brilliant sun star, created by the photographer's small aperture. This sun star gives the scene a mystical atmosphere and emphasises the sublime presence of the Highland cattle.

At the end of the field, trees stretch out, perceptible only as silhouettes. They form an impressive contrast to the brightness of the sky and the cattle in the foreground. These trees, shrouded in silhouette darkness, add a deep spatial dimension to the photograph and create a fascinating visual balance.

The photograph exudes an atmosphere of calm and majesty while capturing the beauty of nature and the dignity of the animals. This image invites the viewer to marvel at the majestic presence of Scottish Highlands cattle and feel the deep connection between man and nature. It tells of the importance of conservation and the preserved beauty that exists in our environment.
