This is a drawing of a herd of goats standing together in a rural setting with a grass and earth texture beneath them. The goats are detailed, with emphasis on their shaggy coats and curving horns. Some goats are standing still while others are moving towards vegetation on the right. The background is sketched with simple lines, suggesting a sky or open landscape. The illustration is monochromatic and uses intricate line work to show texture and detail.
