A horizontally oriented oil painting depicts a landscape where people with light skin tones harvest grain. In the foreground left, figures rest by golden haystacks and a white tent. Centrally, a man drives horses across a threshing floor. To the right, more people and oxen gather near piled hay. A wide plain recedes toward distant hills and a mountain, with colors becoming hazier under a pale, expansive sky.
