Painting Description
"Sheep in Snow" is a painting by the Scottish artist Joseph Farquharson, renowned for his idyllic and realistic winter landscapes that often feature sheep and rural life. Farquharson (1846–1935) was a laird and a painter who combined his passion for art with his responsibilities as the owner of the Finzean estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. His works are characterized by their meticulous attention to the effects of snow on the landscape and the play of light during the winter months.
The painting "Sheep in Snow" depicts a serene snowy scene in which a flock of sheep huddles together against the cold, with a shepherd or farmer typically present to tend to the animals. Farquharson's use of color and light reflects the chill of the winter air and the warmth of the sun breaking through the overcast sky. The artist's technique involved painting en plein air, even in the harsh conditions of a Scottish winter, using a specially designed painting hut on wheels that allowed him to capture the true effects of the season on canvas.
Farquharson's work was popular in his time, and "Sheep in Snow" is exemplary of the kind of subject matter that appealed to Victorian audiences, who appreciated his romantic yet realistic portrayal of the Scottish countryside. His paintings were exhibited widely, including at the Royal Academy in London, where he became a regular exhibitor after his first painting was accepted in 1873.
Today, "Sheep in Snow" and similar works by Farquharson are held in various public and private collections, and they continue to be appreciated for their technical skill and evocative representation of rural Scotland. The painting is emblematic of Farquharson's artistic legacy and his contribution to the genre of landscape painting in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
