Framed Sheep Prints
Sheep don’t have the best reputation of all domesticated animals, as they are sometimes regarded as stupid and likely to follow the flock without thinking.
On the other hand, their pleasant nature and the cuteness of the lambs made them the focal point of attention for artists. The best paintings and posters can now be enjoyed at FramedArt.com which has assembled a comprehensive collection of Framed Sheep Art.
Framed Sheep Art feature different types of sheep, which is only natural given the fact that there are dozens of species scattered all over the world. Overall, there are in excess of 1 billion domestic sheep and they represent an important source of meat, milk but also wool. This explains why they were among the first domesticated animals and were central to many cultures, representing one of the building blocks of some of the most successful civilizations.
A quick glance at the Framed Sheep Art will highlight the fact that sheep are descendents of a species of wild mouflon that used to roam the grasslands of Asia and Europe. Individually, these animals have a hard time finding their way around and that’s why they feel far more comfortable in a flock. This has also been a source of derision, as they seem to lose all initiative and follow the one in front of them even when this action leads to certain doom. Without being the most intelligent domestic animals, they are obedient and have a major economic role.
