About this artwork
Painted in 1885, this is an oil on canvas by John Singer Sargent, an American artist working in the Impressionist manner. The scene is set in a wheat field near the village of Broadway, in Worcestershire, and the title tells us the reapers have stopped to rest. The picture is a landscape with figures, and a tree also appears among its subjects. It belongs to the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
On your wall: Its rural subject and open field setting suit living rooms, dining rooms and studies, particularly where a calm, naturalistic picture is wanted.
