Corsican Bergerie with Goats – Landscape Art

Description

Painter Susan Horsfield captures the bustle and warmth of rural Corsica: a throng of goats crowds into the cool shade of a bergerie, its pale stone arches glowing against olive greens and earth tones. Rendered in mixed media (gouache, pastel and chalk), the piece brims with texture—scrubby pasture, weathered masonry and quicksilver goat shapes sketched in confident strokes. A versatile art card for birthdays, thank-yous or notes to anyone who loves animals, the Mediterranean, or plein-air painting.
