About the piece
George Clausen’s 'Building the Rick' (1907) is a masterful study of light and rural industry. The composition uses the dappled shade of overhanging trees to frame the central activity of stacking hay, while chickens in the foreground add a sense of everyday pastoral life. Clausen's Impressionist-influenced technique brings a warm, hazy glow to the scene, making it a timeless piece of British heritage art.
