Farmer's Revolt
1933

Illustration of several farmers in a field, swinging sticks and pitchforks at a flock of birds flying around them. The scene is depicted with dynamic lines suggesting movement, and the farmers are wearing hats typical of rural attire. The artwork has a vintage feel, with a monochromatic color scheme and expressive strokes.
