The Good Shepherd

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Good Shepherd by an unknown artist depicts a sculpture of a man with curly hair wearing a robe that covers one shoulder. The man cradles a sheep over his shoulder with his right arm while supporting it from underneath with his left. He holds a shepherd's staff in his right hand. A second sheep lies at his feet on the right. A third sheep climbs the staff. The sculpture is made from off-white stone. The background is gray and fades to black.
