Description

Harvest Moon, Shoreham, 1830-1831 by Samuel Palmer (1805-1881). This small watercolour focuses on a spectacular full moon at harvest time. The harvesters wear brightly coloured smocks and move down the hillside towards the village. Palmer has applied the rich watercolours with a thick brush over a very decisive drawing giving a dramatic intensity to the work. Samuel Palmer is considered to be one of Britain's most original artists, and a key figure in the Romantic movement.
