Goat in a Landscape

Adam von Bartsch

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a goat climbing on a rocky surface next to a tree. The drawing depicts a goat in mid-motion, with its front legs elevated onto a rock, while its body is inclined upwards. The goat has long, curved horns and a shaggy coat. The tree next to the goat has detailed bark and leaves, and the rocky surface is illustrated with intricate lines. Shadows and cross-hatching techniques add dimension and realism to the scene.
