This etching by Romeyn de Hooghe, titled "Herderin met mand op het hoofd, een koe, twee geiten en twee schapen in het water" (Shepherdess with a basket on her head, a cow, two goats and two sheep in the water), showcases a bucolic scene featuring a shepherdess leading a cow, two goats and two sheep across a shallow stream. The detail of the animals’ fur and the shepherdess's clothing is rendered with meticulous precision, emphasizing de Hooghe’s mastery of etching. The scene, likely a rural landscape in the Netherlands, exemplifies the Dutch Golden Age’s fondness for naturalism.
