August 1860. Harvest Time. Wheat is being harvested by hand. It is cut with sickles, the sheaves are arranged in stooks and then leaded on a horse-drawn wagon by pitchfork. Among the straw stems are some of the wild flowers of cornfields: blue cornflowers, red poppies, daisy-flowered corn chamomile and the small pink bindweed.
