Edward Hopper

(Study of Farmworkers at Rest)
c. 1900

A vintage monochromatic painting depicting a rural scene with several figures. On the left, a seated man with a crutch looks on while, in the center, a group of people engage in a conversation near a doorway. A woman in a dress appears to be the focal point of the interaction. To the right, a man stands in the doorway speaking to someone inside the building, and a cow's head is visible in the background. The artwork has a rough, unfinished quality with visible pencil grid lines and areas of unpainted canvas, suggesting it might be a study or draft.
