"Autumn (Wine Harvest)" is an etching by Charles Michel Campion from 1768. The artwork depicts a pastoral scene with a group of people working in a vineyard, likely during the grape harvest. The scene is framed by an oval border with decorative elements, such as a basket of fruit and vines, that add to the overall sense of abundance and prosperity. Campion, known for his intricate details and graceful compositions, was a French artist who specialized in landscape etchings, making this print a fine example of his artistic style. This print is a valuable historical and artistic piece, offering a glimpse into rural life in 18th-century France.
