About this work

This painting shows a group of people carrying large baskets on their backs. The scene looks busy, with bright yellows, browns, and greens dominating the colors. The figures are slightly blurred, making the baskets and ropes stand out more. The thick paint gives the work a textured, almost rough look. The artist seems to focus on the physical effort of the workers rather than their faces. Look up impasto next to see how this thick paint technique works.
