Heinrich Johann von Zügel was a German painter of the late nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century. He is known as a painter who specialized in depicting farm animals in dramatic and humorous situations.
Von Zügel invested more than 40 years in the subject of "Hard Labor," depicting mostly the work of oxen. By creating 24 versions of this subject, the artist demonstrated the evolution of his skill from realistic detailing to cubic and monumental interpretation. Von Zügel also created light impressionist paintings, including a self-portrait at the age of 77. In addition to animals, he also painted portraits and cityscapes.
