About this work

A graphite pencil sketch on cream paper shows a horse standing with its head turned back toward the viewer, its hindquarters and tail in the foreground. A draped quarter sheet covers the horse's back, and the musculature is shaded with soft tonal hatching while the mane and legs are rendered in loose outline. The work is attributed to Sawrey Gilpin and is titled A Horse Standing, Head Turned, Wearing Quarter Sheet.
