Landscape with resting shepherds in the foreground. One sits near the centre playing a wind instrument; another rests on the ground opposite the musician, turning his shoulders toward the viewer. A couple is embracing. A shepherd holding a stick on his shoulder is walking up a path. A river and mountains in the distance. Atop the rock in the middle-ground is a round-shaped building. Several animals and shepherds are scattered in the distance.

No musical work linked.
