Herderin bij ruïne 1807

"Herderin bij ruïne" (Shepherdess by Ruins) is an etching by Dutch artist Frédéric Théodore Faber, dating back to 1807. The print depicts a shepherdess tending to a herd of cows along a winding path in front of a ruined castle. The composition uses meticulous detail to capture the bucolic scene, emphasizing the rural setting with a focus on the architectural elements and the small figure of the shepherdess in the foreground. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
