The image displays two sheep resting on the ground. One sheep faces us, while the other is turned away. Shrubs or low bushes are faintly visible in the background. The artwork is done in an etching style with intricate lines and cross-hatching for texture. The color scheme is black and white, highlighting the detailed linework and light-shadow interplay. Horizontal lines in the background suggest a simple backdrop.
