About the piece
Painted in 1851 by the renowned animalier Sir Edwin Landseer, this oil on canvas captures a variety of animals gathered in Geneva. The composition showcases Landseer's celebrated ability to imbue subjects with textured realism, from the coarse coats of the donkeys to the luminous eyes of the resting dog, all framed within a classical stone archway.
