Description

Physical Description:

Printed in black, a tractor carrying hay and with exhaust smoke is in the center of the print, driving towards the right. On the viewer's left and in back of the tractor, a farm scene with stalks of grain, a chicken, and a nest full of eggs backdropped by a field crisscrossed with lines and a sun shining on the horizon. On the viewer's right and in front of the tractor, two hands reach into the foreground from the right, a field with sporadic wilted plants and distant mountains in the background.
