Gathering Wheat
1937

A vibrant painting depicting a rural harvest scene with workers gathering hay into sheaves in a golden field. A horse-drawn cart is loaded with hay in the foreground, while in the background, more workers can be seen in the fields under a vast sky filled with fluffy white clouds. The landscape includes rolling hills and scattered trees, with a hint of blue sky peeking through the clouds. The painting is signed "Max Arthur Cohn 1937" in the lower right corner.
