The theme of serenity is portrayed throughout this painting: all of the faces are calm and the setting they are in is very relazing.

The strak white of the bird is contrasting to the colors of the dark sky, and the contrast in the birds weight and the animals its carrying is another example.

Principles of Design: Rhythm


The rolling hill is smooth, and your eyes move along with it giving one the feeling of moving.

Principles of Design: Repetition

The spahe of clouds is repeated in the shape of the hay bales, and the whole painting is mundane, or sad and tired, like the man. Tthe angles of the clouds and hay bales are also examples of repetition.
