Description
Photograph of "The Lost Sheep", a painting by Alfred M. Soord depicting a haloed mountain shephard trying to rescue one of his flock, [s.d.]. The shepherd is shown from the back, clinging to the slope of a mountain with one hand while reaching out with the other. Below him and to the right, a lamb appears to be caught on the mountainside along a narrow ledge. Two birds can be seen in flight in the background, along a mountain ridge. A halo can also be seen around the shepherd's head.
