A country scene in a broad horizontal format: in the foreground a grazing flock of sheep and goats, among them shepherds with staffs and a black-and-white sheepdog. Beyond appear slopes worked in thick, textured brushstrokes, clusters of trees, pale buildings and a mounted party upon the hill. The artist's signature and the date appear at the lower right.
