Description
This is a watercolour of an early morning scene on a sheep property or 'run' painted by Samuel Thomas Gill. It depicts a shepherd and his dog at the rear of a flock of sheep disappearing over a small hill. A slab hut is shown on the slope of the hill and a small hurdle or temporary fence is in the foreground. The painting measures 9.6 cm x 15.9 cm. The artist's initials, 'S.T.G.', appear next to the title, 'Turning out the sheep from the hurdle yard, early sunrise, shepherd leaving the hut', which is at the bottom of the watercolour.
