EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the masterpiece "Resting Shepherds" painted by Johann Heinrich Roos in 1660. The oil on canvas artwork measures 67.5 x 82 cm and depicts a serene scene of shepherds taking respite amidst nature's beauty. In this enchanting composition, Roos skillfully captures the tranquility of rural life. The shepherds are seen reclining near a majestic tree trunk that dominates the foreground, providing shade and shelter from the sun's rays. Their weary bodies find solace as they rest upon the soft grass, their flock grazing nearby. Roos' attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he effortlessly portrays the play of light filtering through leaves onto the pastoral landscape. The artist's signature and date can be found on the left side of the painting, etched onto the lying tree trunk itself: JHRoos [JHR ligiert]. fecit. i660. Born in Otterberg in 1631 and passing away in Frankfurt a. M in 1685, Johann Heinrich Roos was renowned for his ability to capture animals with remarkable precision and sensitivity. This particular piece exemplifies his mastery as it transports viewers into an idyllic countryside setting where time seems to stand still. The Liszt Collection proudly presents this extraordinary print that allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Roos' talent from afar. Whether displayed within homes or galleries, "Resting Shepherds" invites us all to pause for
