Both the brilliant, crisp colours as well as the compositional ideas - such as the herd in the foreground with an undulating landscape in the middleground - recall 17th century Dutch landscapes which Loutherbourg often looks back to. The medieval castle, with the squared tower flanked by lancets with broken arches and a high pointed roof, is a distinct French component in the picture. Loutherbourg paints here the medieval castle for the first time, it will then become a successful and recurrent element, especially in his paintings of 1767.
