EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Shepherdess Shepherdess Sitting Foreground Child" we are transported to a serene countryside scene filled with warmth and tenderness. The focal point of the image is a shepherdess, gracefully seated in the foreground, cradling a child on her lap. The child's tiny hands hold onto a vibrant bunch of flowers, symbolizing innocence and purity. As our eyes follow the child's gaze, we notice that he points towards his mother, acknowledging her nurturing presence. In response, the woman gently extends her arm towards a sowing farmer working diligently in a field on the left side of the background. This gesture signifies their interconnectedness as part of an agricultural community. Adding to the authenticity of this pastoral setting are two sheep and goat grazing nearby, accompanied by an attentive dog faithfully guarding its flock. These animals serve as reminders of nature's harmony and man's reliance on them for sustenance. The artist behind this masterpiece is Jacob Gerritsz Cuyp who skillfully captured this idyllic moment using oil paint on canvas in 1628. The dimensions reveal its grandeur: measuring 114 cm in height and 169 cm in width (frame: 118.5 cm x 173.5 cm; sight size:110.5 cm x165.7 cm). This enchanting print from Liszt Collection transports us back to simpler times when life revolved around nature's rhythms and human connections were cherished above all else – truly capturing the essence of
