Peasant Woman Digging Up Potatoes

A bent figure in a dark shawl and cap works in an open field, digging with a tool near a scatter of pale potatoes in the grass. Loose, dabbed brushwork in greens, browns and ochre builds the earth and the ragged tree line behind her.

Español: Campesina desenterrando papas
