Three bullocks is a 1792 by William Daniell, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows three bulls in a loose, sketchy style. One stands tall with its horns curved back, another sits on the left, and the third rests on the right. The lines are quick and simple, almost like a quick note of how they look. The drawing feels more like a study than a finished work—just a few strokes to catch the shapes and mood. It’s not detailed, but that makes the animals feel alive in a rough, natural way. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
