"Sketch made on Indian Reservation, Montana" Art Print

Sketch Made on Indian Reservation, Montana by Walter Shirlaw shows several horses gathered around a seated figure in the open Montana landscape. Shirlaw uses quick, loose lines to catch the animals’ stance and the closeness between them, giving the sketch a sense of life even in its simplicity. The lightly drawn hills and trees keep the setting spare, so the horses remain at the heart of the image.

Walter Shirlaw was a Scottish-born American artist who trained in Munich and became known for paintings and drawings of rural life. His animal studies are especially admired for the way he captured posture and character with a few well-placed lines.
