"Ein auf einem Ochsen reitender Hirte treibt seine Herde heimwärts" is a red chalk drawing by the German Baroque artist Johann Heinrich Roos, currently housed at the Städel Museum. Roos, known for his animal studies and depictions of rural life, captures a shepherd riding an ox while leading a flock of sheep home. The drawing showcases Roos's masterful use of line and shading, creating a sense of depth and movement in the scene. The composition emphasizes the shepherd's dominance over the herd, while the overall tone evokes a sense of tranquility and the rhythm of daily life.
