"Cattle by a Stream" is a painting by Jan Hendrik Scheltema, a Dutch-Australian artist known for his pastoral scenes and depictions of livestock. Born in Rotterdam, Netherlands, in 1861, Scheltema later migrated to Australia, where he became recognized for his contributions to the Australian art scene, particularly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The painting "Cattle by a Stream" is characteristic of Scheltema's work, showcasing his skill in capturing the serene beauty of the Australian countryside. In this piece, Scheltema depicts cattle leisurely gathered by a stream, possibly to drink or cool off, set against a backdrop of lush greenery and a tranquil sky. The composition reflects a harmonious coexistence of domesticated animals within their natural environment, a theme often explored by the artist.

Scheltema's technique in "Cattle by a Stream" demonstrates his adept use of light and shadow, as well as his ability to render the textures of the landscape and the animals' coats. His brushwork varies from fine detailing in the cattle's features to broader strokes that compose the foliage and water, creating a sense of depth and realism.

The painting is a testament to Scheltema's reputation as a master of bucolic landscapes and animal portraiture. While the exact date of creation for "Cattle by a Stream" is not specified, it is likely to have been produced during the peak of Scheltema's career, when he was actively exhibiting his works in art shows and galleries throughout Australia.

"Cattle by a Stream" not only reflects Scheltema's personal artistic style but also contributes to the broader narrative of Australian art history, where the depiction of rural life and the celebration of the natural landscape have been recurrent themes. The work is significant for its representation of the Australian pastoral genre and for its place within the oeuvre of an artist who bridged Dutch and Australian artistic traditions.
