Landschap met herders en in de verte een tempel 1804

"Landschap met herders en in de verte een tempel" (Landscape with Shepherds and a Temple in the Distance) is an 1804 etching by Christian Haldenwang. The artwork, which is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts a serene pastoral scene. The foreground is dominated by a group of shepherds leading their flock through a grove of trees. The composition is balanced by the inclusion of a temple in the distance, suggesting a sense of peace and tranquility. This print is a fine example of Haldenwang's ability to capture the beauty of the natural world through detailed etching.
