A horizontally oriented print in dense black-inked fine lines depicts a man with a light skin tone wearing a hat and coat herding a flock of sheep into a dark doorway on our left. A bird flies above. In the center, a small white lamb stands. On our right, a large dark dog with its back turned watches against a textured wall. Cross-hatched strokes create depth within the building and thick wool.
