Explanation:
George Orwell uses Simile, a figurative language device that compares two things using the adverbs like or as.
When describing the people working on the land he refers to them as the unvisible part of a (beautiful) visible landscape. This is a very subtle way of critisizing the British Empire that ignores (they don´t see them) the working people who, seen by Orwell, are doing important work.
