About the piece

Painted in 1767 by Philip James de Loutherbourg, this work exemplifies the artist's ability to blend naturalistic detail with atmospheric drama. The composition centers on a group of cattle drinking from a pool, watched over by a herdsman, while a towering rocky outcrop and soft, luminous clouds create a sense of scale and serenity typical of late 18th-century European landscapes.
