Very concise composition. Perhaps, even the sheep in this case are rather the background than the heroes of the canvas. The shepherdess is the main character. She is depicted realistically, without embellishment, in her usual, everyday image. An interesting detail is that she knits on the move, probably from the wool of the same sheep that she shepherds.
