This 1775 print, "Landschap met herders, vee en de Milvische brug," by Richard Earlom depicts a pastoral scene with a shepherd and flock crossing a bridge in the foreground. The scene features a distant Italianate landscape with a bridge, likely the Milvian bridge, with a large tree dominating the composition. This black and white print, created using the mezzotint technique, offers a glimpse into Earlom's mastery of tonal variations and the representation of light. The print's realistic depiction of the scene makes it a quintessential example of 18th-century landscape art.
