  3. The image shows two women walking arm in arm, both in traditional attire. One woman is facing away with a slight profile, while the other is seen from the side. Their faces are stylized and simplistic with covered hair. They wear long dresses with aprons and collars, and one has a striped apron. Haystacks and greenery surround them. Faint figures are in the background, as well as a spire-like structure. A dog is seen near the haystack, with simple lines suggesting a landscape.

Their contemporaries

  1. This image shows a rural landscape with a pond in the foreground where cattle are being herded by a person on horseback. There are low buildings with smoking chimneys in the middle ground. Trees on the horizon separate the land from the sky, which is filled with clouds. The painting is detailed with a consistent brushwork, capturing foliage and buildings. The color palette is primarily sepia, giving a vintage and serene feel to the scene.
