Painting, watercolour, Haytime at Upperby, Carlisle, Cumberland, by Thomas Bushby, about 1908.
Haymaking scene; two women and a man rake hay into piles in a gently sloping field, a carthorse with loaded haycart standing between them, foreshortened. To left of composition lies the field's hedge with the rooftops of houses above visible it. To right, a dappled shadow is thrown across the field at the far end of which lies a village with landscape of woods and fields giving way to distant hills beyond.
