A shepherd in Hungary in the 1930s with his flock and his Kuvasz. This "bare, empty, bereft" land is where our Kuvasz lived and worked for over a thousand years.
Wikipedia describes the Puszta_Pannonian_Steppe:
"Puszta is a grassland biome on the Great Hungarian Plain (Alföld) around the River Tisza in the eastern part of Hungary as well as on the western part of Hungary and in the Austrian Burgenland. The Hungarian puszta is an enclave of the Eurasian Steppe.
"It covers a total area of ca. 50,000 km2 (20,000 sq.mi). The characteristic landscape is composed of treeless plains, saline steppes and salt lakes, and includes scattered sand dunes, low, wet forests and freshwater marshes along the floodplains of the ancient rivers.
"The word means 'plains', a vast wilderness of grass and bushes. The name comes from an adjective of the same form, meaning 'bare, empty, bereft'. Puszta is ultimately a Slavic loanword in Hungarian (compare Bosnian/Croatian/Montenegrin/Serbian pust and Polish pusty, both meaning bare or empty).
"The climate is continental. Landscape is widely cultivated, the original Puszta landscape now being found only in a few places, for example in Hortobágy."
