The Return of the Gleaner is a 1867 oil by Winslow Homer, a Realism work, held at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.
This painting shows a woman standing in a field, holding a long, curved tool over her shoulder. She wears a long skirt, a dark jacket, and a white headscarf, with her hands on her hips. The field is full of tall, yellow grass and red flowers. The woman stands confidently, looking straight ahead. The sky above her is cloudy and gray, with a few patches of blue. The painting has a sense of calmness and serenity, with the woman being the main focus. The painting is held at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.
