The Last Days of Harvest by Winslow Homer. Black and white image. Two men sit on the ground among cornstalks and harvested corn. The man on the left wears a flat cap and holds an ear of corn with the husk partially removed. The man on the right wears a bucket hat and holds an ear of corn in one hand and a knife in the other. Scattered around them are more ears of corn, some with husks removed. In the background, a horse-drawn wagon with two men and two horses. The wagon faces left. The men in the wagon wear hats with wide brims and hold objects that resemble sticks with round objects on top. In the distance are hills and a cloudy sky with birds flying. The men are dressed in dark long-sleeved clothing. The image has a border around it. The image depicts a rural scene.
