The haystack
Item Information
- Title:
- The haystack
- Description:
-
The stack, towards the right, is combined with a thatched, lean-to shed, one compartment of which shelters a wagon. To the left is a small shed beyond a fence ; on the near side of the palings are two ladders leaning against a wall. The top of another ladder projects above the ridge of the haystack. Two birds are flying and two others perch on the top of the stack. In the foreground are three hens ; another is seen more to the left and a fifth near the shafts of the wagon. The trees are almost completely burnished out. A few straggling lines, slanting downwards, project beyond the end of the haystack on the right.
