About the piece
Painted in 1875, this work by Max Liebermann captures a scene of agricultural labor with a sense of quiet gravity. The composition features workers scattered across a dark, tilled field under an expansive, overcast sky, rendered with the somber tones and naturalistic detail characteristic of the artist's early period.
