A Young Bull Grazing

Hendrik Voogd

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a cow grazing in profile view. The drawing features pencil or charcoal strokes creating a sketchy style with soft shading and defined outlines. The color palette is monochromatic with varying shades of gray on a pale background. In the distance, a few trees are visible on the left, while a cow stands with its head down, focused on feeding. A tree frames the scene from the right with some branches sketched out.
