Studie af et liggende får is a 1846 by Unknown, a Romanticism work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting depicts a sheep lying on its side, with its head turned to the right. The sheep's wool is rendered in soft, feathery brushstrokes, and its legs are tucked under its body. The background is a muted brown color, which provides a subtle contrast to the sheep's white fur. The painting's use of warm colors and soft brushstrokes creates a sense of calm and serenity. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the way the sheep's fur is depicted, with each strand carefully rendered to create a sense of texture and depth. The artist's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of volume and depth, adds to the overall sense of realism in the painting.
