CATALOGUE RAISONNE i. ABRAHAM SETTING OUT FOR CANAAN. In the left foreground of a hilly landscape the aged Abraham kneels, facing right. He has a long white beard ; his arms are outstretched, and he raises his head to look at the sky, where a ray of sunlight breaks from the clouds. Near him to the left are three children with a goat ; farther away a woman rides an ass ; beyond, the caravan follows in a long line, with women, children, servants, cattle and baggage. In the right foreground, near Abraham, lies a red and white spotted cow, looking at the spectator. A stream fills the right side ; it forms a waterfall in the middle distance ; it is crossed by a bridge beyond. In the left distance the ground rises to an imposing hill, surmounted by a ruin. This is Potter's earliest dated picture
