A charming antique oil on canvas depicting a serene pastoral scene. A shepherd dressed in dark clothing tends to a flock of sheep grazing along a country path. The composition features a beautiful atmospheric perspective with trees framing both sides and a luminous golden sky suggesting either dawn or dusk. The painting exhibits the characteristic style of 19th to early 20th-century European pastoral art, with loose brushwork and an emphasis on capturing light and mood. The work is housed in its original carved wooden frame with decorative detail.
