"A Shepherdess by the Edge of an Italian Lake" is a painting by Ettore Ximenes, an Italian sculptor and painter known for his works in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Ximenes, born in Palermo in 1855, was active during a period of Italian art that was characterized by a transition from Romanticism to Realism and eventually to Symbolism and Art Nouveau. While Ximenes is primarily celebrated for his sculptures, his paintings also reflect the artistic trends and cultural milieu of his time.

The painting depicts a pastoral scene, a common subject in the art of the period, which often idealized rural life and the natural landscape. In this work, a shepherdess is portrayed at the edge of an Italian lake, suggesting a serene and harmonious interaction between humans and nature. The use of light and color in the painting may reflect the influence of the Impressionist movement, which was gaining prominence during Ximenes' career, although his style remained distinctively aligned with the Italian artistic tradition.

The exact date of creation for "A Shepherdess by the Edge of an Italian Lake" is not well-documented, which is not uncommon for works by artists of this era who produced a large volume of art.
