Description | In black ink on white coated paper, an image of a farmer's field. A farmer strolls away from the observer spreading seed from a side-bag.

To the right of the field is a road lined with narrow trees and farmhouse situated at the base of a hill, on which possibly sits a castle. In the foreground is a piece of farming equipment and foliage frames the german expression "Und Erliches fiel aut ein gutes Land". The entire image is framed by a shaded border, rounded at the top. |
