Sheep Lying Down n.d.

This simple yet detailed drawing titled "Sheep Lying Down" by Johann Heinrich Roos is a study of a sheep's anatomy. Created with graphite on paper, Roos meticulously captures the sheep's woolly fleece with a delicate layering of lines, while a subtle shading technique gives form to the animal's body. This drawing likely served as preparatory work for a larger painting, showcasing Roos's keen eye for detail and his interest in animal subjects.
