EDITORS COMMENTS
Robert Hills' captivating print, titled "Cows and Sheep" (n.d.), transports us back to the idyllic countryside of 19th century Britain. The art institute of Chicago proudly houses this exquisite work, a testament to Hills' mastery of graphite and brush, as well as his deep connection to the rural landscape of England. The scene unfolds on cream wove paper, with the gentle undulations of the English countryside serving as the backdrop to a pastoral tableau. In the foreground, a group of cows graze peacefully, their dark forms contrasting against the lighter grasses and the occasional tree. Their serene expressions and relaxed postures speak to the contentment of these creatures in their natural habitat. In the background, a flock of sheep dots the landscape, their white forms creating a striking contrast against the rolling hills and the dark trees. The intricate details of their wool and the individuality of each animal are rendered with remarkable precision, showcasing Hills' exceptional draftsmanship. The black and white, or bw, medium further enhances the timeless quality of the piece, drawing our focus to the intricacies of the animals and the landscape. The use of graphite pencil and brush, as well as gray and black wash, adds depth and texture, creating a sense of three-dimensionality that invites the viewer into the scene. This evocative print, with its quiet beauty and meticulous attention to detail, invites us to pause and appreciate the simple pleasures of rural life. Whether viewed in the hallowed halls of the art institute or in the comfort of our own homes, "Cows and Sheep" by Robert Hills continues to captivate and inspire.
