This pencil drawing titled "Cow" by English artist Sawrey Gilpin depicts a single bovine standing in a field. The artist, known for his animal studies, executed this work in a simple and naturalistic style, capturing the animal's form with delicate lines and subtle shading. The sketch demonstrates Gilpin's keen observation of animal anatomy and his ability to convey their natural grace through a minimalist approach. The drawing, currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, exemplifies the artist's contribution to the development of animal portraiture in the late 18th century.
