Landgoed met schapen en een geit 1806

"Landgoed met schapen en een geit" is a black and white etching created in 1806 by Frédéric Théodore Faber. The scene depicts a rural landscape with a group of sheep resting under a large tree in the foreground. A goat stands prominently to the left, while a small sheep grazes near a stream. The etching demonstrates Faber's skill in capturing the details of nature, from the texture of the sheep's wool to the delicate branches of the trees. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into 19th-century Dutch rural life and Faber's talent for depicting the natural world.
