About the piece
Painted in 1607, Abel Grimmer's 'Summer' captures the rhythmic toil of the harvest in the Flemish countryside. Figures are depicted in various states of labor—scything grain, binding sheaves, and pausing for a drink—against a backdrop of rolling hills and a local church steeple, showcasing the artist's characteristic narrative style.
