Benton and America in the 1930s: Works on Paper

May 19–Sept 4, 2004

A black and white illustration of a man standing in a field, leaning on a shovel with a large cylindrical log in front of him. The background features a curved landscape with a road lined with cars leading to a distant farmhouse and silo. The sky is lightly clouded with a few birds in flight. The image has a surreal quality with the road and cars defying normal perspective and gravity. There is a signature at the bottom right corner.
