About this work

This drawing, titled The Sheep-shearers, shows two peasant figures working together on a sheep seated between them, one wearing a wide-brimmed hat and the other a headscarf. A haystack rises on the right and a fence and open field appear in the background, rendered in loose, hatched pencil or crayon strokes.
