Classic Kuhn–like something out of Aesop’s Fables–the hungry fox and the mouse, who is either oblivious or entirely unworried. As ever, Kuhn captures the rough lushness of fox fur in winter and the essence of the imminent pounce in the fox’s raised left paw. Sunlight, which shoots through the clouds and shines on the snow, frames the mouse, who isn’t, in my mind, quite so unaware.
