Dr Syntax, continuing his tour of the Northern counties,has discovered that sketching the life of the countryside is not easy. Some fellow travelers suggest that he might concentrate on sheep, which are generally less alarming.
A coloured print of Dr Syntax Drawing After Nature by Thomas Rowlandson. 

The good doctor attempt to sketch his horse, Grizzle, and a variety of farmyard animals which confront him in a circle to observe, and variously deprecate, his attempts at art. 

A fashionable trio stand behind him and offer advice.
