Landscape with Cattle

Thomas Barker 1769 - 1847

Summary

Dramaic landscape depicting two cattlemen driving their herd through a narrow rocky gorge. One of the men rides a horse as he guides his livestock along the rough terrain, and a third man is visible further down the gorge, leaning against a large rock. A dense group of trees lead down towards a ruined building on the far right, and in the distant background, a flat landscape lines the horizon. The sky is cloudy and overcast.
