About this work

This drawing shows a quiet countryside scene with rolling hills, trees, and a small body of water. A lone cow stands near the water’s edge, while a person walks in the distance. The sky is lightly sketched with wispy clouds, and the hills have a rough, textured look. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to suggest movement in the landscape, almost like a quick study. The handwritten date at the top hints it might be older than it looks. Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this work in person.
