Etched around 1650–1651 and known in French as Le troupeau en marche par un temps orageux, this print — held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, among others — shows herdsmen driving their cattle home beneath a turbulent, wind-swept sky. It's a departure from the calm, golden light Claude Lorrain is best known for, using the etching needle instead to build a darker, more dramatic atmosphere across the landscape. The print shows the range within Claude's pastoral repertoire, from sunlit idylls to weather-beaten drama.

Printed edge to edge on a soft, durable woven area rug with a comfortable, non-slip feel.
