Herder met schapen en hond 1830 - 1880

This black and white print, "Herder met schapen en hond", by Adolphe Mouilleron, depicts a shepherd with his sheep and a dog. Created between 1830 and 1880, the piece showcases Mouilleron's talent for capturing rural scenes. The shepherd, standing with his staff, commands attention against a backdrop of a hazy, overcast sky, while the dog stands alertly nearby. The print's subtle details and realistic depiction of the shepherd's world evoke a sense of tranquility and the simplicity of rural life. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
