Southern Landscape with Shepherds and Sheep by Simon van der Does. Dutch, 1676. Brown ink and wash on paper. In the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
From the Met:
Like his father and teacher Jacob van der Does (1623-1673), Simon van der Does painted Italianate landscapes populated by shepherds and their flocks—the kind of pastoral imagery that was popular in the Dutch Republic throughout the seventeenth century, particularly within courtly circles in The Hague. This early drawing (inscribed on the verso with the artist’s initials and a precise date of execution) depicts a shepherd and shepherdess following their sheep through a hilly landscape. A lively application of wash, with increasing dilution of the ink from foreground to background, yields a strong sense of atmospheric perspective.
