This plaster relief was illustrated in The Studio's article about Anning Bell's 'New Treatment of Bas-Reliefs in Coloured Plaster' in 1893; a 'sober and scholarly work, and withal new', they praised his 'Harvest' panel for infusing the 'qualities of modern taste' into the 'half-forgotten art' of plaster relief.
