Description

Black and white coloration. Image of a man and two children on a mule-drawn wagon through a rolling landscape. The man is driving with his back to the viewer. The two children (a girl on the right, a boy on left) are sitting at the rear of the wagon facing the viewer; they look bored. Bushes flank both sides of the road, low and drawn with heavy black lines. The sky appears heavy as if a storm is either threatening or just passed. In the lower right corner written in the stone is the artist's signature "Benton" and below that, it is signed in pencil by the artist
