Rape threshing, 1st November 1813. A crowd is flailing and gathering rape; men carry a huge bundle of it. On the left in the foreground two women help with the harvesting by passing the grain through sieves. A woman in the centre seems to be dancing. Number XV from George Walker of Seacroft's 'The Costume of Yorkshire'.
