The Early Plowman

Samuel Palmer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white landscape scene. A man wearing a long dress and hat faces towards the left and guides two oxen through a dirt road. The oxen are harnessed to a plow. Thin, tall trees line the right side and a hill with trees on the left. Birds fly in the air. A building sits on top of a hill on the left. A cloudy sky dominates the top half. A range of mountains fades into the clouds on the horizon. The scene depicts 'The Early Plowman' by Samuel Palmer.
