This painting shows a woman with sheep in a field. The woman is dressed in simple clothes and seems to be watching over the sheep. This painting is interesting because it gives us a glimpse into rural life in 19th century France. You can learn more about this style by looking into the work of artist Charles-Émile Jacque (French, 1813–1894).
