"Bønder vender hjem fra marken med det sidste læs korn" (Farmers Return Home from the Field with the Last Load of Grain), painted by H.J. Hammer between 1830-1882, depicts a scene of rural Danish life. The artwork, currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases a group of farmers returning from their labor, carrying the last load of grain for the season. The composition is characteristic of Danish Golden Age painting, featuring a detailed and realistic depiction of the figures and landscape. This painting provides a glimpse into the daily life of Danish peasants in the 19th century.
