About the piece

Painted in 1658 by Johannes Lingelbach, this Italianate landscape captures a quiet moment of rural life typical of the Dutch Golden Age. A shepherd reclines at the base of a weathered tree, his faithful dog at his feet, while a striking white bull and a small flock of sheep and goats dominate the foreground against a backdrop of rugged mountains and distant ruins.
