The ram is distinguished by its large curled horns, while the second sheep is rendered more softly, allowing the two figures to overlap naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe artist uses loose grey and black brushwork to suggest the animals’ wool and form rather than describing every detail. Darker strokes define the horns, faces, and legs, while faint washes build volume across the bodies. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Japanese and East Asian imagery, the sheep \/ ram (羊) is associated with gentleness, harmony, kindness, and peaceful good fortune.
