Herder met twee schapen
Ernst Schiess brings a rugged landscape to life with bold, sweeping brushstrokes that make the sun-baked mountains feel almost tangible. A lone shepherd, sporting a striking red cap, sits pensively in the foreground while two small, fluffy sheep wander nearby. The bright blue sky contrasts sharply with the warm, earthy tones of the terrain, creating a vibrant, post-impressionist scene. You can even see the raw edges of the board where the paint stops, giving the piece a wonderfully spontaneous and unfinished charm.
