The Haymaker is a 1917 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
This painting depicts a man in a field, dressed in a white hat, blue shirt, and dark vest and pants. He is shown from the waist up, with his body angled to the right as he works in the field. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, with visible texture from the paint. The colors are muted, with shades of green, yellow, and brown dominating the scene. The man's clothing is rendered in more subdued tones, while the field and sky are depicted in brighter, more vibrant hues. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the viewer has stumbled upon a private moment in the man's daily routine.
