Description |
A young shepherdess with her flock of sheep behind her. She is seen in sillouette against a sunset and seems to be contemplating or bowing her head down in prayer. She wears a red scarf on her head and a heavy shawl for warmth and seems alone in the barren landscape with just the sheep and a dog around her. The style and theme are typical for Millet as is the nice tonalism qualtiy of the sky and contemplative mood. |
