John Linnell always based his pictures on direct study from nature. However, from the 1840s he also began to invest his landscape paintings with religious symbolism. The composition here is dominated by intensely dark storm clouds which threaten the farmer as he hurries to drive home his herd, creating a foreboding, even apocalyptic atmosphere.
