Tigre accovacciata nel deserto

Eugène Delacroix, 1846, stampato nel circa 1870

This is a drawing of a big cat. The image shows a big cat lying on the ground, its body stretched out and its head resting on its paws. The animal is depicted in black, with lines suggesting the texture of its fur. It is set against a background of a landscape with rolling hills and a textured sky. The details are created using fine lines that give a sense of depth and contrast between the foreground and background.
