Abstract

Here are Holsteins as they've rarely been depicted before—abstractions in black and white, artist's models with long-lashed liquid eyes, soulful individuals and sisters of the herd, the fecund embodiments of mother's milk, tenants of the land, spirits and myths. Fine art photographer Paul Thoresen captures the very essence of cows with his camera. He has been artfully photographing Holstein cattle for more than five decades, mostly on three family farms within a mile of his home near Paoli, Wisconsin. Cows: A Closer Look contains more than seventy photographs in both black-and-white and color.
