Frost and Wood Company Catalog
Image
Cover of an advertising catalog for the Frost and Wood Company, manufacturers of agricultural equipment, Smith's Falls, Ontario, Canada. Features a color illustration with columns and architrave framing a goddess of peace wearing a laurel wreath crown heralding peace and prosperity in the wake of war. She holds an olive branch behind her back and with her other hand is pulling back a curtain to show a scene of a man standing with a horse-drawn grain binder in a tranquil field while the ghostly image of marching British armies float in the clouds above.
