Studies of Sheep in Pasture is a 1838 ink by George Richmond, a Romanticism work, depicting Sheep, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a sheet of paper filled with quick sketches of sheep. Some stand. Others lie down. The lines are light but sure. Richmond used only pen and brown ink. No color. No shading. Just steady strokes that show how the sheep move. He did this in the 1830s. Check the National Gallery of Art, Washington to see more of his work.
George Richmond (28 March 1809 – 19 March 1896) was an English painter and portraitist.
