The Pasture is a 1985 public artwork by Canadian sculptor Joe Fafard, installed in Toronto's Toronto-Dominion Centre, in Ontario. The work features seven bronze cows with varying patinas.[1][2]
Fafard, a recipient of the Order of Canada, was raised on a family farm and was of the view that artists should be inspired by their local environment. Cows were one of his better-known subjects.[3]
