This is a mezzotint print from 1775 to 1779 by Richard Earlom, an English artist known for his mezzotints. The print depicts a pastoral landscape with two cities perched on hills in the background. The foreground shows a group of figures leading cattle across a river. The print's serene composition and atmospheric effects are characteristic of Earlom's work. The detail of the figures and cattle suggests a realistic approach to the subject, while the distant towns add a sense of grandeur. This print is an excellent example of the popularity of landscape art in the 18th century.
