About the piece
In this 1886 watercolor, Anders Zorn demonstrates his technical brilliance through the intricate textures of the grass and the weathered, dignified expression of the elderly sitter. Set against the Swedish countryside during harvest, the work captures the essence of rural existence with a sophisticated use of light and earth-toned palette.
