About the piece
Created in 1892 by Belgian Luminist Emile Claus, this pastel work beautifully captures the play of golden sunlight on two girls walking through a rural field. The soft, textured strokes of the medium evoke a serene, atmospheric quality characteristic of Claus's masterful handling of light and his focus on the beauty of the Flemish countryside.
