Southern Landscape with Shepherds

Oil on canvas (relined). 61 x 71.5 cm.
Signed lower right: Hackert pinxit.

We would like to thank Dr Claudia Nordhoff for confirming the authenticity of this painting on the basis of a photograph. According to her, this is an early work, dating from around 1760. Goethe reports in his biography of Hackert that he copied paintings in Berlin by Nicolaes Berchem and Jan Asselijn, among others. Our painting is a good example of Hackert's reception of the Dutch "Italianisants" of the 17th century.

Provenance
