About this work

This painting shows two ploughs, one in the foreground and one in the background. The plough in the foreground is more detailed, with visible wheels, a frame, and a ploughshare. The plough in the background is less detailed, but its shape and structure are still visible. The ploughs are depicted in a realistic style, with attention to detail and texture. The painting appears to be a study of the ploughs, rather than a finished work. The painting is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
