Title of Work:	Last load
Date of Work:	1875
Medium:	oil
Period/Style:	nineteenth century
URL:	http://www.hayinart.com/images/1238.jpg
Citation:	Crouan, Katharine. John Linnell: a centenary exhibition. Cambridge University Press, 1982, cat. 99, p. 107; and Barringer, Tim. Men at work: art and labour in Victorian Britain. Yale UP, 2005, p. 130.
Index Words:	wagon, storm
Place:	England
Notes:	The sky is almost as dramatic as that of Linnell's other 'Last load' painting (ID 1235); Crouard reads it as an approaching storm, and there is some urgency in the postures and expressions of the workers. Barringer interprets the scene as a wheat harvest, but the material on the wagon is ambiguous.

Notes:	Caption, typed on the back, reads:' Interesting Experiment on Gloucestershire Farm. The photograph shows early hay drying on provised drying racks made from ex-Govt. Sommerfield track. The first crop of hay from a perminant pasture was cut end April and it dry for baling by first week June. Tests of samples show very high food value. An attempt is being made to discover how early the first crop can be cut, which will yet dry out satisfactoraily. Also to be discovered are: the best shape of rack to ensure quick run off rain, depth the which hay can be piled on the racks without inviting mildew or overheating. Also whether it is possible to haymake by this method irrespective of rain. Racks are about four feet high, and placed end on to prevailing wind to get maximum flow of air through the tunnel. About 5 cwt of hay on each rack. If the method is successful the advantages will be a hay of very high food value, gathered in any weather, threee crops per season.'
