This painting shows a group of people picking olives in a grove. The trees are green and the sky is yellow. The people are wearing long-sleeved shirts and pants. They are reaching up to the trees to pick the olives. The painting is done in a style that is typical of the artist, with thick brushstrokes and vivid colors. The trees are depicted in a way that makes them look like they are swaying in the wind. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of Vincent van Gogh.
