Artist, American, 1889 - 1946

This is a drawing of a team of horses pulling a cart over a rugged landscape. The horses are depicted in detailed line work, emphasizing their muscles and features through strong contrasts between light and shadow. The environment appears barren and challenging, with sparse and broken trees. The meticulous cross-hatching and use of negative space highlight the energy and tension of the scene.
