This drawing by Italian Baroque artist Carlo Maratti depicts a group of farmers harvesting fruit. The scene shows the figures engaged in their task, some climbing a ladder while others gather the fruits in baskets. The composition is typical of Maratti's style with an emphasis on naturalism and a focus on the human figure. The drawing is a study for a larger painting, likely a genre scene of rural life. The work is held in the Städel Museum, Frankfurt, Germany.
