Description

This pastoral landscape depicts a solitary shepherd figure in dark clothing standing in an expansive countryside field, accompanied by a resting dog and a small flock of sheep grazing in the distance. The composition features a sweeping horizontal format with rolling hills extending to the horizon under a soft, cloud-filled sky, creating a serene and contemplative rural scene rendered in muted earth tones. Signed. Presented in a rustic wooden frame with a white painted slip. On canvas.

Condition

There is some craquelure to the surface. The painting has undergone some surface restoration to the left-hand side, including a canvas repair. Some wear and small losses to the frame.
