Peter Le Cave

Peter Le Cave painted quiet rural scenes in watercolor around the turn of the 19th century. His 1806 piece Landscape with Horses at Plough shows a field being turned by two patient draft horses, with workers in the distance and a low horizon line beneath a soft sky. These works capture the everyday rhythms of early agricultural life before machines took over. Tap Landscape with Horses at Plough to zoom in and see how light plays across the plow’s blade and the workers’ hats.
