This is a drawing of a donkey standing next to a cottage with several chickens nearby. The drawing features a donkey carrying a pack on its back, positioned in front of a rustic cottage. The scene captures a rural atmosphere. The building is constructed with a stone facade and has a small window. Surrounding the donkey, several chickens are pecking at the ground. In the background, there are a few trees without leaves and clouds sketched in the sky. The detailed line work creates a textured appearance. The signature at the bottom reads "Landseer" with the date "1872".
