Les Bretonneries: Breton Women Making Haystacks (Bretonnes Faisant les Foins)
The image shows a black and white drawing of two women working in a field. The women are wearing long-sleeved shirts and head coverings. One woman is standing and holding a pitchfork or similar tool over her shoulder, possibly with hay on it. The other woman is bending over, possibly gathering hay. The background shows a fence on the left side and rolling hills with sparse trees. The sky appears cloudy. The drawing style is impressionistic with bold lines and shading. The overall color is a range of grays on a beige background.
