About the piece
Created in 1865, this tranquil work by celebrated French animalier Rosa Bonheur captures a moment of quiet repose. The artist's renowned technical skill is evident in the tactile rendering of the sheep's wool and the delicate, luminous light reflecting off the sea and distant coastal rocks.
