Explanation:
“The Stalled Ox” was written by Saki. The Character, Theophil Eshley was an artist by profession. His paintings of cows were appreciated by everyone. He was recognized for his paintings that exhibited cows with nature as its backdrop.
Now one would wonder why an artist who is recognized for his work paint only cows when a painter could make a variety of pictures, as a painter never has dearth for imaginations. His choice of paintings based on cows was not by choice but driven by his environment.
When I say environment, it does not mean he lived in a house full of cows and they ran a dairy farm. He lived in a park-like villa. In his neighborhood, there was a small beautiful meadow where cows pastured.
Initially, the painter was drawn towards the picturesque nature of the cows grazing under the walnut tree. He drew the picture of the cows in the shade of the walnut trees grazing in the meadow grass, and the sunlight on them. His expression on the canvas came out so well that everyone soon asked the artist more such pictures with cows grazing with his imagination.
