The Tavern on the Green restaurant located in Central park in New York City commissioned Steven Noble to render a new custom illustration for their Easter holiday event for use on their Easter Brunch menus and website. The illustration replaces their existing sheep with two Easter rabbits. The artwork was rendered in a traditional “timeless” engraving style.
Tavern on the Green was originally built as a sheepfold in current day Central Park . The sheep were actually held there at night and let out on Sheep Meadow during the day to graze and mow the lawn. Since we were going for this farm to table concept, the sheep really were a good vision for that sort of food.
