Haymakers at dinner is a 1812 watercolor by Thomas Uwins, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a group of people eating outdoors by a large tree. Some sit on the grass, others stand or lean on a wagon. A dog lies near a boy, and a horse stands off to the side. The scene looks busy but calm, with soft colors and a cloudy sky in the background. The artist used loose brushstrokes to show light and shadow, giving the scene a warm, lived-in feel. This style was common in watercolors of the time. Look up Romanticism next to see how this painting fits into the movement.
The watercolour titled *Haymakers at Dinner* was created by Thomas Uwins in 1812.
