"Landschap met Apollo en Mercurius, die de kudde van Admetus wegdrijft" is a print by English artist Richard Earlom, dating back to possibly 1775. This etching depicts a pastoral landscape with a river and bridge in the distance, a group of trees in the foreground, and a man and his herd of cattle. The print, now in the Rijksmuseum collection, highlights Earlom's skill in capturing the delicate details of nature through the use of soft lines and shading. The print is an excellent example of the artist's mastery of the etching technique and the popularity of landscape art in the 18th century.
