contents In the Labourie-Loftin parametrization of the Hitchin component of surface group representations into SL(3,R), we prove an asymptotic formula for holonomy along rays in terms of local invariants of the holomorphic differential defining that ray. Globally, we show that the corresponding family of equivariant harmonic maps to a symmetric space converge to a harmonic map into the asymptotic cone of that space. The geometry of the image may also be described by that differential: it is weakly convex and a (one-third) translation surface. We define a compactification of the Hitchin component in this setting for triangle groups that respects the parametrization by Hitchin differentials.
