"Two Lying Sheep" is a graphite drawing by Friedrich Wilhelm Hirt, currently housed in the Städel Museum. The artwork depicts two sheep lying down, with the larger sheep in the foreground positioned slightly to the right, and the smaller sheep lying down on the left of the frame. Hirt's detailed rendering of the sheep's wool and musculature highlights his keen observation of animal anatomy. The drawing exemplifies his ability to capture the tranquility and simplicity of the natural world.
