"Oxen Ploughing a Downland Field" is a painting by the English artist Robert Hills (1769–1844), known for his depictions of animals and rural life. Hills was an accomplished watercolorist and etcher, and his work often reflects the agricultural practices and landscapes of the early 19th century. This particular painting captures the pastoral scene of oxen being used to till the soil on a downland, which is a type of hill or upland with chalky, fertile soil.

The painting is executed with attention to the muscular forms of the oxen and the rugged textures of the landscape, characteristic of Hills' style. The composition likely aims to evoke the harmony between the animals and their handlers, as well as the connection between the agricultural labor and the land itself. The use of light and shadow, as well as the detailed rendering of the animals, suggests Hills' keen observation and his ability to translate these observations into his art.

As a historical piece, "Oxen Ploughing a Downland Field" provides insight into the agrarian lifestyle of the period and the role of draught animals in farming before the widespread use of mechanized equipment. It also reflects the broader tradition of British landscape painting, which often celebrated the countryside and its traditions.

Robert Hills was a member of the Old Water-Colour Society, and his works are held in various collections, including the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. "Oxen Ploughing a Downland Field" contributes to the understanding of Hills' oeuvre and the genre of animal painting within the context of British art history.
