The Cattle Vendor

Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned drawing of a group of men standing next to a herd of cattle. The men are wearing old-fashioned clothing, including long robes and head coverings. The man on the right appears to be gesturing towards a large dark brown bull with curved horns. The men on the left appear to be dressed similarly, with long robes and head coverings. Behind the men and cattle, there are more cattle and a few birds flying in the sky. The background shows a hazy horizon line and a light-colored sky. The drawing is on aged paper with a rough edge and a darker border around the drawing. The artist's signature appears in the bottom right corner.
