The Return from the Harvest 

Rosa Bonheur's "The Return from the Harvest" depicts a group of oxen pulling a wagon piled high with hay. The painting captures the arduous labor of rural life, with farmers and workers moving through a landscape under a clear blue sky. The realism of the scene is a trademark of Bonheur's style, known for her detailed depictions of animals and agricultural subjects. "The Return from the Harvest" exemplifies her interest in portraying the dignity of manual labor and the beauty found in everyday life.
