Artist, French, born St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, 1830 - 1903

The image shows a pastoral scene with a winding path leading towards a group of bare trees. Among the trees, a figure tends to a flock of sheep. The horizon is low, and the landscape is undulating, creating a sense of depth. The brushstrokes are sketch-like and the color palette is monochromatic with shades of grey and muted tones.
