Harvest is a 1887 by Unknown, a Impressionism work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows two people walking across a field of dry, golden hay. In the distance, a line of dark trees stands against a pale, cloudy sky. Below them, three dark, rounded bushes sit near the bottom of the painting. The brushstrokes are loose, blending colors smoothly to show light and shadow. This style was meant to feel quick and natural, like a snapshot of a moment. If you like this, look up Impressionism next.
