"Hiding in the Haycocks" is an 1881 oil painting by the American artist William Bliss Baker, whose work is often associated with the Hudson River School and is known for its realistic depictions of nature. This painting exemplifies Baker's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the intricacies of the natural world. The artwork features a rural scene with haycocks (piles of hay arranged for drying) dotting a field, a subject that reflects the artist's fascination with pastoral landscapes and agricultural life.

The composition of "Hiding in the Haycocks" is marked by its serene atmosphere and the interplay of light and shadow, which was a hallmark of Baker's style. The painting's title suggests a playful element, possibly alluding to children or animals that might be concealed within the hay. Baker's technique involved careful observation and a high degree of finish, which lent his paintings a sense of realism that was highly regarded by his contemporaries.

Completed when Baker was just 23 years old, two years before his untimely death at the age of 27, "Hiding in the Haycocks" is considered one of his masterpieces and is a testament to his artistic potential. The painting is not only a representation of rural America in the late 19th century but also an example of the naturalistic detail that characterized the Hudson River School and the broader American realist movement of the time.

"Hiding in the Haycocks" is held in a private collection, and its display history includes exhibitions that have highlighted Baker's contribution to American art. As with many of Baker's works, this painting continues to be appreciated for its technical proficiency and its evocative portrayal of the American landscape.
