Carting Corn is a 1943 by Laura Knight, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print, titled "Carting Corn," depicts a horse in the foreground, pulling a cart through a field of tall grasses. The horse is adorned with a harness and saddle, and its head is bent downward as it pulls the cart. In the background, rolling hills stretch out under a light sky. The scene is rendered in a detailed, realistic style, with the horse and cart taking center stage. The surrounding landscape is depicted in a more subtle manner, with the hills and sky fading into the distance. For more works like this, explore the Victoria and Albert Museum.
