About this work

This painting shows a group of five people walking along a grassy path. A man in a vest and cap leads the way, holding a pitchfork over his shoulder. Behind him, a woman in a long skirt carries a heavy bundle on her back. Three children follow, two holding hands. The background has a red-roofed house, bare trees, and a distant body of water under a partly cloudy sky. Notice how the artist uses bold colors and simple shapes to show the scene. The figures look real but are painted in a straightforward, almost flat style. Check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth in paintings.
