About the piece
Painted in 1889 by Theodore Clement Steele, this oil on canvas depicts a serene morning at Old Schofield's Mill. The work showcases the artist's masterful handling of light and texture, with sun-drenched grass and the delicate foliage of a massive tree framing a group of resting cattle. As a key member of the Hoosier Group, Steele's impressionistic style brings a timeless, grounding presence to this rural Indiana scene.
