Cow

Johann Heinrich Roos

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a red drawing of a cow lying down, set against a beige background with a black border. The cow is positioned on the right side of the image, facing to the right, with its head turned slightly towards the viewer. The cow's body is rendered in red pencil or chalk, showcasing its distinctive features: a long snout, two small horns on top of its head, and a curved tail. The animal appears to be resting on the ground, with its front legs tucked under its body and its back legs stretched out behind it. The background of the image is a light beige color, resembling aged paper. A thick black border surrounds the entire image, adding depth and contrast to the overall composition. The artwork, titled "Cow," was created by Johann Heinrich Roos.
