A Barley Field
Arthur Joseph Gaskin 1862 - 1928
Summary
A rolling landscape in green and golden yellow, its undulating contours divided into a patchwork of fields interrupted by a scattering of small-holdings in middle ground. The barley field, in the centre of the composition, is being harvested by a single figure. A line of dark, cloud-capped mountains sit on the horizon.
