Ewe, or A Grazing Sheep c. 19th century

"Ewe, or A Grazing Sheep" is a bronze sculpture created by renowned French artist Rosa Bonheur, known for her animalistic subjects, during the 19th century. This small-scale sculpture, measuring just 13.97 cm in height, captures a sheep in a naturalistic pose, its head lowered as if grazing. The detailed rendering of the sheep's wool and the subtle depiction of the ground beneath its feet showcase Bonheur's meticulous attention to detail and her skill in capturing the essence of her subjects. The sculpture's small size makes it suitable for a domestic setting, adding a touch of natural beauty and realism to any space.
