The Lost Sheep
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating ceramic figurine that transports us back to the 18th century. Created by the Staffordshire Factory around 1770, this lead glazed earthenware piece showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of its time. Measuring at 21.6x9.55 cm, "The Lost Sheep" depicts a scene filled with emotion and tenderness. A figure, possibly a shepherd or farmer, stands tall with a walking stick in hand as he searches for his lost sheep. His loyal dog faithfully follows him, both determined to find their missing companion. The delicate details of this statuette bring it to life - from the intricate folds of clothing to the realistic rendering of each animal's fur. The artist, John Voyez, skillfully captures the vulnerability and innocence of the lost sheep through its gentle expression and posture. This artwork holds historical significance as it represents not only an artistic masterpiece but also reflects upon rural life during that era. It serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and our responsibility towards caring for those who depend on us. Currently housed in Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, "The Lost Sheep" was generously bequeathed by Jane Taft Ingalls. Its presence within their collection allows visitors to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and cultural importance. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we can now cherish "The Lost Sheep" even if we are unable to witness it firsthand.
