Work Description: 
A lone, golden-colored grain elevator rises dramatically from the flat prairie landscape, interjecting into a swirling blue and purple sky, which is interrupted by a single white cloud. The viewer is separated from the scene by several dark, vertical forms rising in the immediate foreground at left, suggesting grasses or another type of prairie vegetation.
