"Landschap met meer en twee herders met vee" (Landscape with a lake and two shepherds with cattle) is a mezzotint by English artist Richard Earlom, created in 1774. The print depicts a pastoral scene with two shepherds tending to their cattle by a lake. The soft, tonal qualities of the mezzotint create a sense of tranquility and depth, typical of the genre of landscape art. This print is a fine example of Earlom’s mastery of the mezzotint technique, which he used to reproduce works by other artists. It's currently held in the Rijksmuseum.
