Pastori che attraversano una cascata

Hubert Robert, 1770/1775

The image shows a pastoral scene with a stream and a rustic bridge. In the background, there are hills and trees. Two children are near the water, one fishing and the other standing. The bridge is old and covered with vegetation. Farm animals and figures are visible beyond the bridge. The artist's style includes intricate strokes for movement and texture, with a focus on foliage and water. The color palette is mostly red and ochre. Trees with detailed leaves frame the scene, leading the eye to a clear sky.
