    Painting that depicts a peasant scene in the middle of a clearing where a shepherd, his boys and a herd of cows are taking a much needed break. The play of light, exceptional in beauty and nuance, itself gives the composition a particularly bewitching atmosphere, sometimes strong chiaroscuro, in particular for the bark of this large tree represented in the foreground on the right; the charm is reinforced by the presence of these six cows in the heart of the clearing, underlined by the luminous circle which falls under the canopy, the shadows on their clothes, emphasizing their shapes and their musculature, as well as their way of turning their heads or even to look in our direction, as if they had guessed our presence. The four others in the background, busy drinking, create an atmosphere of tranquility that only underlines the autumnal colors of the leaves. We cannot be exhaustive in our Description without mentioning the variety of branch shapes, sometimes thin, sometimes Thick, in some gnarled ones, as well as the fact that the forest opens up in the background, creating a coveted perspective.
