About this work
In a hilly landscape, farmers are busy with the grain harvest. Some men are threshing the grain. In the background, two men plow a field with a plow, and a man sows new grain. The sluggard lies under a tree and sleeps. Based on the biblical text in Proverbs 20:4. Below the image, an explanatory text in Latin. The print is part of an album.
