The Shepherd by Paulus Potter: A black-and-white drawing of a pastoral scene. A man sits on a hillside playing a pipe, surrounded by sheep and goats. A bull and a donkey are to the left. In the background, a landscape with trees, a body of water, and a distant church steeple. The sky has scattered clouds. A tree with gnarled branches stands to the right of the shepherd. The animals are variously standing, sitting, or lying down. The scene depicts a serene rural setting.
