6
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
A figure leading a cow and calf, and a kneeling goat is a 6 by George Chinnery, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This drawing shows a man leading a cow and calf while a goat kneels nearby. George Chinnery made it in 1838 using simple pencil strokes. It belongs to the Romanticism movement, which often focused on everyday life and nature. The sketch captures a quiet farm moment with just a few confident lines. Two studies appear on one sheet: one scene with the animals and another with the kneeling goat. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more sketches by George Chinnery.
The drawing depicts a man wearing a broad-brimmed hat guiding a cow and calf, accompanied by a goat kneeling nearby, and is part of a volume containing 179 sheets of drawings made in Bengal and Macau. It was bequeathed in 1928 by James Orange as part of an album with 93 drawings by George Chinnery, who worked primarily in India and China during the early 19th century.
