Detailed Description
Pastorale is a type of painting that depicts bucolic or idyllic scenes of rural life. The word “pastoral” comes from the Latin word pastor, meaning “shepherd.” Pastorales are often set in the countryside and feature shepherds, nymphs, and other mythological figures in bucolic settings. Some of the most famous pastoral paintings include “The Arcadian Shepherds” by Nicolas Poussin, “The Shepherdess” by Jean-Francois Millet, and “The Hay Wagon” by American painter Andrew Wyeth. Pastorales are typically peaceful and serene, with an emphasis on the beauty of nature. They often convey a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time.
