About the piece
Created in 1878, this gouache work is a quintessential example of Winslow Homer's interest in rural American life. The composition features two figures standing in an orchard, where Homer employs a masterful play of light and shadow, with dappled sunlight filtering through the leaves to illuminate the grassy ground and the women's bonnets.
