A dreamlike oil portrait showing an farmer holding his hat in one hand and a hay fork with a small hay stook speared at the end. The artist has given this painting a dreamlike surrealism with a vibrant palette for the impressionistic landscape and a monochrome, grey palette for the wonderfully detailed face of the farmer. This, paired with the farmer's awkward demeanor and the disconnected landscape gives the painting a tense atmosphere.
The painting is unsigned and presented in an ornate gilt effect frame with lime wash.
On canvas.The condition is typical for a picture of this age including some discolouration. There is a scratch across the centre of the painting curving downwards. This does not detract from the image.
