National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a wild boar lying on the ground. The drawing shows a detailed depiction of the boar's fur, snout, and hooves. The boar is in a resting pose with its head slightly lifted and turned to the right. The background includes lines and shading hinting at a natural landscape. Light shading and crosshatching techniques contribute to the texture and depth of the drawing.
