Johann Heinrich Roos

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing on off-white background. A man sits on wooden boards. He has short hair and wears a loose-fitting short-sleeved shirt and knee-length shorts. He sits with his left leg extended, bent at the knee. His right leg is bent behind him. A dog with long hair faces away, head down. The man holds the dog with both hands. A tree trunk is behind the pair. A sign with a vine frame is on the left. It reads "Quelque animaux tires au vif, et graves sur le cuivre, avec estude et travail par I.H.Roos M.D.C.LXV". A hat rests on the boards. A shepherd's staff leans against the boards. Trees are in the background.
