"Schafhirte" (Shepherd with Sheep) is an artwork by the German expressionist painter Paula Modersohn-Becker, created during the early 20th century. As a pioneering figure in modernist art, Modersohn-Becker was known for her bold use of color and form, as well as her exploration of themes related to nature, rural life, and the human figure. "Schafhirte" exemplifies her interest in depicting the simplicity and tranquility of pastoral life, a subject that resonated with her personal experiences in the artist colony of Worpswede, where she was an active member.

The painting portrays a shepherd, a motif that carries traditional connotations of guidance and watchfulness, amidst a flock of sheep. Modersohn-Becker's treatment of the subject is characterized by a sense of immediacy and intimacy, with the figure and animals rendered in a stylized manner that eschews detailed realism in favor of emotional expression. The composition is notable for its harmonious blend of natural forms and the artist's distinctive, flattened perspective, which lends the work a timeless, almost archetypal quality.

"Schafhirte" reflects Modersohn-Becker's innovative approach to form and her contribution to the evolution of expressionism, a movement that sought to convey subjective experience through art. Her work, including this piece, has been celebrated for its pioneering spirit and its role in challenging the conventions of her time, particularly with regard to the representation of women and the natural world in art. Despite her untimely death at the age of 31, Modersohn-Becker's legacy endures, and "Schafhirte" remains a testament to her artistic vision and her profound impact on the development of modern art.
