North - Winter, Frank Hartley Anderson, woodcut
This wire sculpture represents a life size male figure. The figure is seated on a stool sculpted of cream-colored wire, and he plays a bongo drum made of wire held between his legs. The figure's yellow wire hands rest just above the drum and attach to his arms and torso made of green wire. The man wears glasses. His face is turned to his proepr left shoulder, and his mouth is open in song. The sculpture rests on a wooden base.
At the center of this circular, black and white print, a man wearing a hat, shirt, and pants harvests wheat with a scythe with multiple blades. Behind the field of wheat, nestled in the hills, are a group of farm buildings including three grain silos. At the bottom of the print is a small still life that includes implements related to farming including a water jug, a hay fork, a sickle, and a scythe.
