Haymaking is a 1857 unspecified by William Howis senior, a Realism work, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
This painting depicts a serene scene of haymaking. In the foreground, a large haystack dominates the right side, with people working around it. On the left, a tree stands tall, and a fence runs along the edge of the scene. The background is a soft, hazy landscape with trees and a pale sky. The artist has used warm colors to create a sense of tranquility, with the golden hay and earthy tones evoking a sense of rustic simplicity. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, adding to the overall sense of movement and energy in the scene.
