Landschap met een herder, vee en pluimvee

A wide landscape with a seated herdsman beside cattle on a grassy bank, while ducks, geese, a goat and a rooster gather at a shallow pond in the foreground. Stormy clouds fill the sky above soft, distant trees, rendered in warm earthy tones with loose brushwork.
