A vertically oriented lithographic crayon and ink drawing on cream paper captures several gestural studies of oxen. At the top, a heavily shaded ox with dense, dark hatching faces right. Below, two oxen lie beside a small standing figure with light skin. Across the bottom, a larger ox is rendered with light, sweeping lines. Overlapping sketches and varied line weights define the animals' forms, suggesting a process of anatomical observation across the page.
