Rats amongst the Barley Sheaves

The painting depicts three dogs surrounded by hay. The dog on the left is mostly black with white markings on its tail and chest. The dog in the middle is mostly black with brown and white markings on its face and paws. The dog on the right is brown with white paws. The dogs appear to be sniffing or looking at something on or near the hay. The hay is golden yellow and there are several bundles of it. In the background, there are three wooden barrels. The barrel on the left is taller and thinner. The barrel in the middle is shorter and wider. The barrel on the right is partially visible. The background is dark and appears to be a wall or other solid surface. The scene appears to be indoors. The image title is "Rats amongst the Barley Sheaves" by Thomas Hewes Hinckley.
