Nicolaes Berchem's "Hügelige Gegend, rechts Hirte und Hirtin auf Eseln reitend mit Vieh" is a pastoral scene of a shepherd and shepherdess riding donkeys with cattle in a hilly landscape. The drawing, held in the Städel Museum, is characteristic of Berchem's work, known for its detailed depiction of rural life and landscapes. The light brushstrokes and muted tones create a sense of tranquility and evoke the warmth of the sun-drenched countryside. Berchem was a Dutch painter of Italianate landscapes who specialized in scenes of peasant life, and "Hügelige Gegend" exemplifies his distinctive style.
