The Gathering Storm
Julius Caesar Ibbetson 1759 - 1817
Summary
Dark, atmospheric farmyard scene with a storm gathering in the sky above. A tall, gnarled tree is visible in the foreground to the left and farm buildings to the right, surrounded by dense trees. In the central foreground, a young boy drives cattle with a stick as the storm begins to gather. The sky is dark and foreboding, casting shadows across the farmyard and the vast mountains beyond.
