Work Description:
|
This painting illustrates a completely barren landscape in which a train runs across the distant horizon at center, contrasting with the vertical grain elevator and snaking smoke stream rising through the sky at center. The painting's lively knife strokes and swirling atmosphere convey a blustery, wind-blown mood.
