EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Flock of Goats" takes us back to the picturesque Dutch countryside in 1781. Created by Cornelis Brouwer and published in 1786, this artwork beautifully captures a serene rural scene filled with rustic charm. In the foreground, a goatherd stands tall, overseeing his flock as they peacefully graze on the lush green grass. The goats meander freely around an archway that leads to a ruined structure in the background. This architectural feature adds an intriguing element to the composition, hinting at a forgotten past amidst nature's tranquility. Brouwer's masterful use of chalk manner and aquatint techniques brings depth and texture to this black ink print on laid paper. The monochromatic palette emphasizes both the timeless quality of rural life and the enduring beauty of these animals. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this artwork showcases Brouwer's skillful portrayal of regionalism during the eighteenth century in low countries. It serves as a testament to his ability to capture not only physical landscapes but also evoke emotions tied to heritage and tradition. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are transported back in time - witnessing a harmonious coexistence between man and nature that has long been cherished throughout history.
