The Good Shepherd

Afro-Amerikaanse schilderkunst van de 19e eeuw, ca. 1918

This painting depicts a small, simple cottage surrounded by trees. In front of the cottage appears to be a person next to a flock of animals, such as sheep or cattle. However, the details are indistinct, and there is little contrast between these figures and the background. Everything in the painting is colored in shades of yellow-ochre, light green, and reddish-brown tones. The brushstrokes are visible and textured.
