This painting by Helen Allingham (1848-1926) is our writing prompt this week. Why has this man paused to look back? Why he is carrying a scythe? #writingprompts #writinglife #writingtips #helenallingham #artworks

A man carrying a scythe in one hand and holding a dark jacket over his shoulder with the other hand has paused on a dirt track and is looking back over a stand of shadowy trees to the horizon where a sun/moon is rising/setting. He is wearing a soft black hat, a long-sleeved white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, a red sash, light brown trousers and sturdy light brown boots. The track seems to be passing through a field of cut grass/grain. Image by Helen Allingham (1848-1926) from Wikimedia Commons.
