The Barnyard

Amerikanische Malerei 1885–1890, late 19th century

The painting depicts a rural farmstead. On the left, two horses stand near a gray wooden barn, with cows standing and sitting on the right in front of a fenced-in green field. The ground below the animals is brown, with patches of yellow, green, and cream. There is a white two-story house with blue shutters and a white picket fence in the distance. The sky is grayish-blue with light clouds. Trees around the house and barn show hints of green and brown.
