Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white woodcut print titled "Ideal Pastoral Life" by Edward Calvert. The scene shows a nude woman standing on the left side, holding a bow and arrow over her shoulder. She faces right and appears to look down. Her hair is long and windswept. There are several sheep on the ground in the foreground. A dirt road leads into a forest in the center and right of the image. There is a figure of a man and another sheep farther back on the road. Trees and foliage are present throughout the image. The image has a border around the edges. The background is not visible, as the image is a standalone artwork. The print is signed by the artist in the bottom right corner. The bottom of the image includes publication information.
