A sleeping shepherd. A man lies on the ground. He has long hair and wears a wide brimmed hat. He is dressed in a long-sleeved shirt over long pants. The man sleeps on his side on the ground with his head resting on the bent arm. His other arm rests across his torso. A dog sleeps with its head on the man's back. In the background, another dog is standing. The ground is covered in grass. The entire image is monochromatic in sepia tones. The drawing by Pierre Alexandre Wille depicts a landscape scene with the sleeping figure.
