Hirten mit Vieh an einem Fluß 

This delicate drawing titled "Hirten mit Vieh an einem Fluß" (Herdsmen with Cattle by a River) by Franz Kobell (1749-1822) showcases the artist's mastery of landscape drawing. The artwork, currently housed in the Städel Museum, depicts a serene rural scene with a river winding through a verdant valley. The artist uses subtle hatch lines to capture the gentle movement of water and the foliage, creating a sense of tranquility. Kobell's attention to detail is evident in the portrayal of the herdsmen tending to their cattle, and the composition's overall balance creates a harmonious interplay between nature and human activity.
