"Herder en herderin" (Shepherd and Shepherdess), an 1815 work by Dutch artist Diederik Jan Singendonck, depicts a pastoral scene with two figures riding donkeys through a wooded landscape. The delicate lines of the drawing create a sense of calm and serenity, typical of Singendonck's style. The artwork, measuring 217 mm by 261 mm, showcases the artist's meticulous attention to detail, with the figures, animals, and foliage rendered with remarkable precision. This print offers a glimpse into the daily life of shepherds in the early 19th century, with its focus on the simplicity and beauty of rural landscapes.
