"Kuh auf der Weide" (Cow in the Pasture) is a notable painting by the Swiss artist Ferdinand Hodler (1853–1918), who is renowned for his portraiture, landscapes, and genre paintings that often reflect a Symbolist influence with a distinct style that would later be known as Parallelism. Hodler's work is characterized by a rhythmic repetition of forms and colors, which he believed reflected the order and harmony of the universe.

Created in 1901, "Kuh auf der Weide" exemplifies Hodler's mature style, where he combines a naturalistic approach to the subject with a structured composition that emphasizes symmetry and balance. The painting depicts a solitary cow grazing in a pasture, a subject that may seem ordinary at first glance but is transformed through Hodler's vision into a serene and monumental representation of nature and rural life.

The cow is centered in the composition, set against the backdrop of a simplified landscape that eschews detail in favor of broad, harmonious swaths of color. The horizon line is placed high in the composition, allowing the expanse of the pasture to dominate the foreground. This placement, along with the cow's calm demeanor and the gentle undulations of the land, imbues the scene with a sense of tranquility and timelessness.

Hodler's use of color in "Kuh auf der Weide" is also noteworthy. He employs a palette that is at once vibrant and restrained, with the greens of the pasture and the blues of the sky creating a peaceful and cohesive color harmony. The light in the painting suggests a particular time of day, possibly early morning or late afternoon, which adds to the mood of quiet contemplation.

"Kuh auf der Weide" is not only a testament to Hodler's skill as a painter but also an example of his philosophical engagement with the natural world. Through this work, Hodler invites viewers to consider the beauty and dignity of everyday life, as well as the deeper rhythms and patterns that underlie our existence. The painting is held in high regard and is often cited as an important work in the oeuvre of one of Switzerland's most celebrated artists.
