Le Retour Du Troupeau 

"Le Retour Du Troupeau" ("The Return of the Flock") is a painting by Charles Sprague Pearce, an American artist who lived from 1851 to 1914. The painting depicts a shepherdess with her flock of sheep returning to a farm. The shepherdess is dressed in traditional clothing and carries a staff, a kettle, and a dog. The scene is rendered in a realistic style, with detailed brushstrokes and a soft palette of muted colors. Pearce's work often focused on rural life, highlighting the beauty and simplicity of nature and the lives of those who lived close to it. This painting is a poignant example of his ability to capture the tranquility of the countryside.
