Landscape View and Farm

Image

View down a rocky hill towards a split-rail fence bordering a prosperous farm. The low building in the center is the kind of cattle shed settlers built as their first buildings. Circular haystacks in the background are a Northern European feature, and there is a barn with a cupola and a farmhouse. Three people are posing in the barnyard near a horse-drawn wagon on the right, and another man is sitting in a cart on the left side of the barn. A long fence line is along the hill in the background on the right above the farmhouse.
