Haywagon in a Farmyard 1865

"Haywagon in a Farmyard" is a watercolor painting by Johan Barthold Jongkind, created in 1865. The artwork depicts a hay wagon in a farmyard, with the hayload filling most of the canvas. The wagon's wheels are visible, and there are faint sketches of a figure and a fence in the background, suggesting a rural scene. The loose, sketch-like style and use of watercolor, characteristic of Jongkind's work, create a sense of spontaneity and immediacy. This painting embodies the artist's exploration of landscapes and everyday scenes, highlighting his keen observation of light and atmospheric effects.
