The dry wheatfield stretches back into an endless distance. Koller-Pinell has captured the structures of the landscape and people’s bodies using broad brushstrokes. They are busy harvesting, although the image lives more from the harmony of the colors and an ordered composition than from rendering the toil and struggle or the dignity of hard labor. As in this work, Koller-Pinell often approached her subjects with an empathetic detachment, evoking a melancholy underlying mood. The painter belonged to Austria’s artistic elite even before 1900. She participated in the most important exhibitions in Vienna and her work was also shown internationally, for example at the Chicago World’s Fair.
