About the piece
Painted in 1838 by Jacques Raymond Brascassat, this work captures a moment of quiet repose in the French countryside. The shepherd is rendered in soft, earthy tones, leaning against the massive scale of a rock formation that contrasts with the delicate, atmospheric rendering of the distant grazing goats and hazy sky.
