Entry/Object ID

1989.6.6

Description

Crisp image of a rural farm scene. Appears to be a rear view of the farm seen in 89.6.5. The land surrounding the farm is rolling farmland, typical in American Midwest. There appears to be a road (possibly a railroad) that begins one-third of the way across the lower picture plane and extends to the far right-hand corner. Its vanishing point is approx. one-third of the waymup the picture from the bottom and approx one-third of the way across the picture plane, beginning from the lefthand side. There is an enormous cloud in the distance, looming over the horizon. The farmhouse and what appear to be two out buildings are in the foreground in the lower right quarter of the picture. As in 89.6.5, the farm building shares its space with two telephone poles, the one on the left-leaning left and the one on the right-leaning right.
