About the piece

Painted in 1873 by American artist Eastman Johnson, 'On Their Way to Camp' captures a quiet moment of rural labor amidst a serene winter landscape. The composition features two men and a young child navigating a sled-mounted barrel through the snowy woods, rendered with a warm palette and masterful attention to the varied textures of wood, snow, and bark.
