"Schaapherder die op zijn staf leunt" is an etching by Dutch artist Willem Witsen, dating to around 1886. The artwork is composed of three distinct scenes. The top scene depicts a mountainous landscape, the middle scene portrays a wagon and a fortified tower, and the bottom scene is a tranquil riverbank. These landscapes, all created through subtle lines and shading, showcase Witsen's masterful use of etching and a keen eye for detail. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum and measures 249 mm in height and 178 mm in width.
