The Harvest Wagon is the name of two oil paintings by the English artist Thomas Gainsborough. The first version was completed around 1767 and is today owned by the Barber Institute of Fine Arts, in Birmingham, England. The second version was painted around 1784 and is now part of the collection of the Art Gallery of Ontario. The Toronto version is the better known of the two. It was donated to the AGO by Frank P Wood in 1941, and is one of the most prominent pieces in the gallery’s collection.
It was featured in William Frederick Witherington's 1824 painting A Modern Picture Gallery displaying classic British paintings of the era.
