Myles Birket Foster - Harvest Time

      This painting describes the rural England at gentle dusk, where farm workers gather golden sheaves across a softly rolling field. Warm autumn light washes the scene, turning straw, earth, and sky into mellow harmonies of gold and brown. The painter focuses on everyday labour rather than drama: figures pause, bend, and converse naturally, embedded in the landscape. Distant cottages and trees anchor the composition, suggesting community and continuity.
