Glen Earl Alps

Spring Plowing
1938

Pencil drawing depicting a stylized, surreal landscape with two large, muscular figures in the foreground, possibly engaged in some form of labor or struggle, with a wavy, ribbon-like form extending into the distance. The scene is monochromatic and exhibits a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, creating a sense of movement and tension. Signed and dated by the artist in the lower right corner.
