About the artist
Nieder-oesterreich, Schloss und Kloster Schönbühel is a 1839 by Jakob Alt, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows a quiet riverside scene with rolling hills in the background. A lone man leads a small herd of sheep along a path near the water, while a large tree stands on the right. Buildings with church steeples sit on a hillside across the river, surrounded by scattered trees and fields. The text at the bottom names the place: *Schloss und Kloster Schönbühel*. This suggests the scene includes a castle and monastery, though they’re small in the distance. Next, look up The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more prints like this.
