This drawing shows two dogs resting side by side. They are drawn with soft pencil shading. This shading helps show the dogs' muscles and volume. The dogs seem relaxed, with one leaning on the other. The artist paid close attention to the dogs' posture. He wanted to show how their bodies looked in a simple way. This was a challenge, but he did it well. You can learn more about the artist's style by looking at the work of artist: Sargent, John Singer.
