The Last Days of Harvest

after Winslow Homer

National Gallery of Art

This image shows a rural harvest scene. Two figures are shucking corn on the ground, with scattered ears of corn and stalks around them. In the background, two adults are on a wagon attached to two horses. The horizon is high with clouds and birds in the sky. The etching style features intricate linework. The color palette is monochromatic using black, white, and gray. Cornfields and tall stalks are visible around the workers.
