Description:
Questa delicata xilografia raffigura un shepherd, probabilmente colto in un momento di vita quotidiana, intento alla cura del gregge o in una scena bucolica. L’opera proviene da un testo francese e presenta un’acquarellatura eseguita in epoca successiva, che ne esalta i dettagli e ne arricchisce la componente pittorica.

La presenza della stampa sul retro indica che l’immagine faceva parte di un’opera più ampia, forse un libro illustrato o una raccolta iconografica. Il tratto incisivo della xilografia, unito alla colorazione successiva, dona alla scena un fascino senza tempo, evocando atmosfere rurali e pastorali tipiche della tradizione iconografica europea.
