ABOUT THE WORK

In this painting of the typical provincial countryside, Pineda was interested in the structural relationship between groups of visual elements — a group of trees to the left and two towering haystacks to the right and their integration with the landscape. The solid, even monumental presence of the haystacks are locked securely into the complex composition led by the overhanging foliage of the trees, which sets the presence of humans in their proper perspective.
