About the piece
Painted in 1855 by Ford Madox Brown, this Pre-Raphaelite masterpiece is celebrated for its commitment to en plein air realism. The artist worked outdoors to capture the intense brilliance of sunlight, resulting in the vivid blues and greens that define this tranquil scene of a mother and child tending to lambs in a rolling English landscape.
