The image shows a man and a mule plowing a field. The horizon is low in the composition with distant tree lines. The sky above is filled with dark, swirling clouds. Closest to us, the man and mule are depicted working the land. In the middle, there is a river with a steamboat to the left. The color palette is sepia tones, emphasizing detailed lines and shadows.
