Flooded cornstooks is a 1893 watercolor by Nelson Ethelred Dawson, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a landscape with flooded cornstooks in the foreground. The cornstooks are brown and tall, and the water around them is blue-gray. In the background, there are trees and a gray sky with birds flying around. The painting has a lot of detail in the cornstooks and the water, and it looks like it was made with watercolor.
