Depicting a landscape centred with a stout three-rail fence, sheep to the left, cattle and a farm labourer to the right, original frame, glazed.
Robert Hills was an English artist and etcher who primarily painted rural scenes and farm animals. He often focused on a foreshortened or rear view of his subjects and the livestock in this felt picture exhibit characteristic naturalistic postures. For a comparison (in particular the brown cow in this image) see a sketch of cattle by Robert Hills in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, accession number 1988.20.18.
On view in the showroom at Tudor House, Sheep Street, Stow on the Wold, GL54 1AA
