About the piece

Joaquim Vayreda’s 1881 painting 'Reaping' is an evocative example of the Olot school, which emphasized the natural beauty of the Catalan countryside. The composition artfully balances the grounded labor of the harvester with the airy, sprawling branches of a grand tree, all rendered in a warm, earthy palette that captures the heat and stillness of a summer afternoon.
