About the piece
Created in 1824 by John Frederick Lewis, this masterly study focuses on the head and yawning maw of a lioness. The work demonstrates Lewis's keen observational skills, with delicate watercolor washes and precise pencil work contrasting the highly finished face against the suggested, sketched form of the body.
