These workers are harvesting in the late summer. Pieter Bruegel (1525-15690). This painting was done on wood with oil. This is a 2-demensional painting. Colors that are included in this painting are brown, tan, gold, green, white, red, blue, gray and black.

In the front, where the workers are, there are straws shaped like tepees, tied at the top so they can stand them up to dry out. Upon the hill there are more straws.
