Tschaggeny flemish pastoral landscape 1849. Oil painting on oak panel represents a bucolic scene, a landscape with animals and a shepherdess, of great pictorial quality; a peasant woman rests in the shade of a tree, a bucket and an amphora lie on the lawn to her left, sitting with her back leaning against a fence, the shepherdess is intent on caressing the muzzle of a compliant cow. A sheep with a lamb is crouching at his feet.
the scene in the foreground is framed by a flat rural landscape with architecture in the distance.
in excellent condition, within a carved and gilded wooden frame.

He established himself as one of the best romantic artists and animal portraitists, consolidating an excellent commercial reputation, thanks also to his patrons such as king william ii of the netherlands, leopold i of belgium and marie henriette of austria.
