Christian Wilhelm Ernst Dietrich's "Felsige Gegend mit einem Hirten, zwei Kühen, zwei Schafen und einer Ziege" (1767) is a picturesque landscape painting. The artwork depicts a shepherd tending to his flock of cows, sheep, and a goat in a rocky, mountainous region. The scene is characterized by a dramatic sky filled with fluffy clouds, a lone tree casting a shadow on the ground, and a distant view of a body of water. This pastoral scene was a popular subject matter for artists of the 18th century, reflecting the growing interest in the natural world and the idealized rural life.
