Cow Art : mural painting "The Sleeping Calf"
"The Sleeping Calf", is a mural painting created in 2015 by the artist Pierre Amoudry
The theme of this monumental mural is a reference to the “Golden Calf” from the Bible. Our calf, sleeping peacefully, has become the admired icon for all kinds of animals, from all over the world. All gazes are drawn to this little calf pictured, shaped like a round cheese, and they all seem to consider him as a god.
All year round, daily.
