Sketches: Figures and Animals

Thomas Gainsborough

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a sketch of a man and a horse. The man is on the right side, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a long coat. He appears to be sitting and leaning forward, possibly holding something in his hands. To the left of the man is a sketch of a horse's head. The horse faces the man. There are some additional sketches on the left side of the paper, including what appears to be another animal's head in the bottom-left corner. The background of the image is a light brown color, resembling aged paper. The overall style of the drawing suggests it was created by Thomas Gainsborough.
