Gathering in the Flock

Charles François Daubigny

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing of a man driving a flock of sheep down a dirt road lined with bare trees. The man stands with his back to the viewer, wearing a hat and carrying a long stick over his right shoulder. The flock of sheep are gathered around him on the road. The road is lined with tall, slender trees that have no leaves. The sky is visible through the trees and appears to be overcast. The drawing is done in a detailed, realistic style with heavy lines and shading. The title of the piece is "Gathering in the Flock" and it was created by Charles François Daubigny.
