"Hilly Landscape" is a small pencil drawing by Richard Wilson (1712-1782). The work is a simple, yet effective depiction of a rolling hillside with a few trees and a small structure visible in the distance. The landscape is drawn in a delicate manner, creating a sense of calm and serenity. This work is a fine example of Wilson's early work, which was often characterized by its focus on natural beauty and its use of simple, yet expressive lines. The drawing is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago.
