This charming late 19th-century Danish oil painting depicts a picturesque rural view with a farm, wandering shepherd and trees.

Akin to a classical vision of pastoral bliss, this majestic landscape celebrates the sublimity of the natural world. Inspired by the Danish Golden Age painters, such as the eminent P. C. Skovgaard (1817-1875), the artist is seeking to capture a beautified vignette of their homeland.

It’s finely rendered, with the trees a particular success. And if you look closely, you’ll see numerous figures working the land.

Held within a gilt frame.

Conservation & History

We care profoundly about our role as custodians and every piece in the collection has been assessed by our conservator. When required, we undertake professional restoration carefully using reversible techniques and adopt a light touch to retain the aged charm of each work. We also often restore frames rather than replace them as many are original and selected by the artists themselves.
