"The Farmer and His Son at Harvesting" is an oil painting by American artist Thomas Pollock Anshutz, created in 1879. This work is notable for its depiction of rural American life during the late 19th century, showcasing the artist's interest in naturalism and the everyday activities of common folk. Anshutz, who was a student of Thomas Eakins and later a colleague, is often recognized for his contributions to American realism and for his role as an influential teacher at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.

The painting presents a pastoral scene where a farmer and his young son are engaged in the laborious task of harvesting. It captures a moment of intergenerational collaboration, highlighting the passing down of agricultural knowledge and tradition. The composition is characterized by its attention to the effects of light and shadow, as well as its detailed rendering of the figures and the landscape. Anshutz's use of color and his ability to convey the texture of the fields and the weight of the summer air demonstrate his skill in translating the sensory experiences of the countryside onto canvas.

"The Farmer and His Son at Harvesting" is considered an important work in Anshutz's oeuvre, reflecting both his technical prowess and his empathetic portrayal of American life. The painting is also significant for its historical context, as it captures a period of transition in the United States, with the agrarian lifestyle beginning to give way to industrialization. This piece contributes to the broader narrative of American art in the late 19th century, offering insight into the social and cultural dynamics of the time.

Held in the collection of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, "The Farmer and His Son at Harvesting" continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and as a document of American heritage. The work stands as a testament to Anshutz's legacy as an artist who adeptly chronicled the essence of American life through his realist approach and sensitive observation.
