Lune des moissons

Paysage américain, 1891

The painting displays a dark green field stretching into the distance. A line of trees and small, indistinct structures can be seen near the center of the painting. One of the structures on the left shows a plume of smoke coming from a small chimney. In front of this structure is an indistinct person who appears to be wearing a dress. The color palette features earthy tones, with deep greens in the field and trees transitioning to softer browns and blues in the distance. The sky is light blue, but is partially obscured by grey and beige clouds. At the center is a yellow full moon, only slightly above the horizon and glowing warmly.
