Untitled is a 1850 by Eduard Kretzschmar, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.

The background has jagged mountains and a sky with wispy clouds. The artist used fine lines to show fur texture and muscle. Notice how the goats’ legs bend naturally, making them look alive.

Six chamois inhabit a steep mountainous landscape in this work by Eduard Kretzschmar from 1850.

White ink highlights patches of ground in the foreground and to the right of the composition.
