Spring Lamb is a 1880 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, depicting sheep, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting shows a small lamb standing alone in a field. It's a simple scene, but what's interesting is the way the light falls on the lamb's wool. The artist used everyday life as inspiration for many of his works, which is partly why this lamb feels so relatable. Check out the work of artist: Winslow Homer (American, 1836–1910) for more scenes like this.
