Setting out on foot in the cool morning, a man, women and two children head for the fields. They work day after day cultivating the fertile earth. The children ride a draft horse and two dogs guard them along the way as they carry their tools, a jar of water and a basket with their lunch. Artist J. Borges finds inspiration for this colorful woodcut print in the rural areas of his native northeastern Brazil.
Xylograph (woodcut) print on paper, titled "Trabalhadores Rurais" in Portuguese.
