About this work

The painting depicts a woman, possibly a goddess, sitting in a field. She is topless and wears a purple skirt and a floral crown on her head. In her right hand, she holds a sickle, and her left arm rests on her lap. The background features a serene landscape with a blue sky and a few plants on the left side. The woman's expression is calm, and her posture exudes confidence. The overall atmosphere of the painting is peaceful, with the warm colors of the sunset adding to the sense of serenity. This painting is reminiscent of the works of Ekman, Anders, who often explored themes of nature and the human figure.
