This sheet features four close-up studies focusing on the heads of goats or sheep. Each animal’s head is drawn from a different angle: one profile highlights a pair of curved horns, while another face is viewed head-on. Lundgren uses warm brown watercolor washes on off-white paper, adding soft shading to model the contours of the animals’ faces. The simplicity of the sketches – with no background – directs all attention to the animals’ features. Created during Lundgren’s journey to Egypt (c. 1871), this detailed yet understated study exemplifies the artist’s neutral documentation of his surroundings in watercolor.
