Winslow Homer, 1873 - Harvest Scene - fine art print

Additional description as provided by the museum's website (© Copyright - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Homer’s preoccupation with idyllic agrarian subjects and direct observation of nature recalls those of French Barbizon School artists, such as Jean-François Millet, who worked near the Fontainebleau forest beginning in the 1830s. Homer might have seen their paintings in his native Boston and during his trip to Paris in 1866–67. Characteristic of Homer’s art of this period is his use of direct, overhead light to define the middle ground. Small figures harvesting hay are merely suggested with quick dabs of paint. Calligraphic tree trunks and spreading branches form an irregular gridlike pattern against the sky.

The modern art work of art was created by the painter Winslow Homer in 1873. The original measures the size: 10 x 24 in (25,4 x 61 cm) and was made on the medium oil on canvas. Today, the artwork is part of the digital collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which is one of the world's largest and finest art museums, which includes more than two million works of art spanning five thousand years of world culture, from prehistory to the present and from every part of the globe..
