Landscape with Cows n.d.

Thomas Monro's "Landscape with Cows" is a delicate charcoal drawing depicting a rural scene. The artwork showcases a cluster of cows gathered around a small body of water, framed by a large, shadowy tree in the foreground. The distant landscape is rendered in faint strokes, creating a sense of depth and atmospheric perspective. The overall composition evokes a serene and tranquil mood, characteristic of the romanticism movement prevalent in the 18th and 19th centuries. This drawing, housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, offers a glimpse into the artistic sensibilities of a prolific artist like Thomas Monro.
