Haystack Art

Haystack wall arts have been used widely to portray the daily lives of farmers and the varying impressions created by the haystacks. In Claude Monet’s “Grainstack (Sunset) 1891” haystack art, for example, the piece combines contrasts of dull and bright colors to create an artistic impression of a haystack. By combining light, color, and effects, haystack images undeniably create an ambience of brightness and contrast that would complement any interior decor. For instance, the simple yet detailed “The Harvest. 1876” by Camille Pissarro, shows very sharp colors that properly show the haystack and the environment around it. This is combined properly with the sky on the background to deliver a naturalistic appeal. The use of landscape in haystack paintings such as John McNaughton’s “Haystack at dusk” or “Harvest Scene” by Paul Gauguin also offers a great sense of depth.
