A Bullock Standing to the Right c. 1760 - 1761

"A Bullock Standing to the Right," a pen and brown ink drawing created by Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo in the 1760s, exemplifies the artist's skill in animal studies. The detailed depiction of the bullock, rendered with precision and a sense of life, reflects Tiepolo's meticulous observation of animal anatomy. The artist’s use of shading and hatching creates a sense of volume and depth, bringing the bullock to life on the page. This work demonstrates Tiepolo's mastery of draftsmanship and his interest in capturing the natural world.
