This is from a region much further south, the Auvergne in central France. The harvest is done. The field in the foreground shows cut stubble in ochres, golds, pinks, and mauves, with individual stalks caught in thick impasto marks. Furrows recede toward a treeline in the middle distance. Above it, the morning sky is luminous and warm in cream, peach, and yellow.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #333333;\"\u003eThe color range in this painting is broad. The stubble field is not simply brown — it contains pinks, purples, and warm whites. The marks are vigorous and confident, and the painting is full of energy despite the subject's stillness.
