About this work

A shepherd in a dark hat and long coat, holding a staff, gathers a flock of sheep on a dirt track beneath a dramatic sky of dark storm clouds with rain falling in the distance. A weathered wooden cross stands at the right edge beside the path, and a distant horizon of open land stretches to the left. This painting, titled Gathering the Flock, is by Eugène Verboeckhoven and dates to 1839.
