Still Presence of the Highland Wild Goat
Sold by
Mahaveer Swami
Description
Still Presence of the Highland Wild Goat captures the balanced posture of a mountain creature shaped with careful linework and gentle shading. Mahaveer Swami draws the wild goat with tall, arched horns that frame its alert face. The fine parallel strokes along the body give a sense of strength without heaviness, while the lean legs and defined joints show the artist’s attentive observation.
The goat stands on lightly detailed ground, surrounded by sprigs of foliage and scattered stones. Two birds circle in the pale sky, adding quiet movement above the steady pose. The old handmade paper softens the entire scene, giving the ink strokes a calm, weathered harmony.
Its presence feels composed and grounded, like an animal pausing in open air.
Why This Artwork Stands Out:
- Strong, elegant horn structure gives the composition a striking silhouette
- Fine ink strokes create subtle texture and natural musculature
- Gentle landscape elements add depth while keeping focus on the goat
- Ideal for collectors who appreciate classical wildlife studies and earthy palette
