Herders met kudde vee op landweg 1636 - 1695

"Herders met kudde vee op landweg" (Herdsmen with a herd of cattle on a country road) is an etching by Nicolas Perelle, a French artist, that was created between 1636 and 1695. The work depicts a pastoral scene with herdsmen and their cattle traveling along a country road. In the background, a village can be seen through the trees, and in the foreground, the path winds through a wooded area. The etching is a fine example of Perelle's mastery of landscape art and his ability to capture the beauty of the natural world in detail. It's currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, and measures 246 mm in height and 320 mm in width.
