This charming watercolor courting scene depicts a couple in a bucolic setting with sheep in the foreground and
in the background, on the far side of the river, stands a large center chimney house. The “shepherd” is placing
a wreath of flowers on the head of a beautifully dressed young lady “shepherdess”. It was a delightful pastime
for well to do young courting couples to dress up and venture into the countryside under the pretext of tending
sheep.
