Cornelis Saftleven was a Dutch painter known for his genre scenes, animal paintings, and satirical works during the Dutch Golden Age. One of his notable works is "Jongen die naar een geit en een bok kijkt," which translates to "Boy Looking at a Goat and a Buck." This painting exemplifies Saftleven's skill in capturing everyday life with a touch of humor and keen observation.

The artwork depicts a young boy intently observing a goat and a buck, showcasing Saftleven's ability to portray animals with a sense of realism and character. The scene is set in a rural environment, typical of Saftleven's genre scenes, which often included farm animals and rustic settings. The composition reflects the artist's interest in the interaction between humans and animals, a recurring theme in his body of work.

Saftleven's use of color and light in this painting highlights the textures of the animals' fur and the boy's clothing, adding depth and vibrancy to the scene. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the careful rendering of the animals' expressions and the boy's curious gaze, capturing a moment of innocence and wonder.

Cornelis Saftleven was part of a family of artists, and his work was influenced by his brother Herman Saftleven, as well as other contemporaries of the time. His paintings often contained moral or humorous undertones, reflecting the social and cultural context of 17th-century Netherlands.

"Jongen die naar een geit en een bok kijkt" is a fine example of Saftleven's genre painting, illustrating his talent for blending realism with subtle narrative elements. While not as widely known as some of his other works, this painting contributes to our understanding of everyday life and artistic expression during the Dutch Golden Age. Saftleven's ability to capture the essence of his subjects continues to be appreciated by art historians and enthusiasts alike.
