Resting by a haystack 

Theodoros Ralli's "Resting by a haystack" is a realist depiction of a woman taking a break from her labor in a field of haystacks. The woman, dressed in a simple traditional outfit, sits against a haystack, her posture suggesting weariness. Ralli's masterful use of light and shadow creates a sense of realism, with warm browns and yellows dominating the scene. This piece is likely a representation of the daily lives of working-class people in the late 19th century, and it showcases the artist's keen eye for detail and empathy for his subjects.
