Lovely! Here's some ews from NASA: "Looking for a little excitement as the summer draws to a close? This year's Perseid meteor shower peaks on Aug. 12-13, and it promises to be one of the best displays of the year. If forecasters are correct, the shower should produce a peak display of at least 80 meteors per hours. A waxing crescent moon will set before the shower becomes active, setting a perfect stage for meteor watching -- "

I found it on the Hermitage Museum website. It's by Aert van der Neer, and I think it's 18th C if I remember correctly.
And one can substitute dogs for the horses in one's imagination.
Lovely!
