About the piece

Painted in 1890 during Paul Gauguin's time in Brittany, this work showcases his signature transition toward bold color and flat forms. The composition captures the rustic charm of the French countryside, balancing the heavy forms of haystacks and cattle against a layered, atmospheric sky in a masterful display of Post-Impressionist technique.
