Peasants and Cows [recto]

Eugène Boudin, 1877

The image is a drawing of various sketches on a page. There are roughly sketched outlines of figures engaged in different actions throughout the page. The drawing includes seated and standing positions, with flowing lines suggesting movement of clothing. In the lower section, a cow is depicted standing next to one of the figures. The drawing is done with light pencil work, creating a spontaneous and quick sketching style, capturing fleeting moments or ideas. The overall composition is loose and sketch-like, rather than a finished piece.
