Harvest Home 1981

"Harvest Home" (1981) is a pen and ink drawing by American artist Edwin Austin Abbey (1852-1911). It depicts a couple, likely a man and woman, seated on a bench in a domestic setting. Their clothing and relaxed posture suggests a scene of casual intimacy and leisure. Abbey's use of fine lines and hatched shading creates a sense of depth and realism, characteristic of his illustrative style. This drawing is a fine example of his work, which often explored themes of everyday life and domesticity.
