Corn Stooks under Trees is a 1881 oil by Nathaniel Hone the Younger, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with corn stooks standing in a field under a cluster of trees. The corn stooks are arranged in a row, with some of them leaning against each other. In the background, a large tree dominates the scene, its branches stretching upwards towards the sky. The overall atmosphere is one of tranquility and rustic charm. The artist's use of warm colors and soft brushstrokes creates a sense of depth and texture in the painting. The corn stooks appear to be bathed in a warm, golden light, which adds to the overall sense of serenity.
