The artwork "Pastoreio gaúcho" by Fernando Fader, painted in 1906, shows a scene of a gaucho (a South American cowboy) on horseback, accompanied by a dog, in a rural setting at sunset. The gaucho wears a hat and sits on a white horse with a saddle. The sky is filled with clouds in various shades of yellow, green and brown, giving a dramatic effect to the sunset. A fence can be seen in the background and a sheep standing near the fence. The dark silhouettes of the gaucho, horse and dog contrast with the light sky, evoking a sense of calm and solitude.
This painting is interesting because it captures a moment of a gaucho's daily life, with a strong emphasis on the natural surroundings and atmosphere of the countryside.
Fernando Fader (Bordeaux, France 11 April 1882 - Department of Ischilín, Córdoba, Argentina 25 February 1935) was a French-born Argentine painter of the post-impressionist school.
