Waddams applies his characteristic style to depict a peaceful Highland cow. The fine brushwork in the cow's shaggy, rust-colored coat give a sense of its woolly texture. Its placid expression conveys an air of tranquility, while the soft, diffuse sunlight bathes the scene in a warm glow. Waddams' choice of earthy, muted background tones highlights the cow's amber fur, and celebrates the rustic beauty of the animal.
