## Summary
A vivid rural scene of a farmer and ox in a flooded paddy field, alive with monsoon earth, motion, and memory.

## Artwork Story

This painting beautifully captures a serene rural scene of a farmer ploughing his field with an ox. The artist uses a rich, impressionistic style with bold brushstrokes and a vivid palette of blues, greens, and warm hues to create a sense of life and motion. In the foreground, the farmer—barefoot and clad in a simple dhoti and turban—guides his ox through a flooded paddy field. The water reflects the sky’s colourful tones, blending shades of pink, blue, and yellow, suggesting either dawn or dusk. The ox stands strong and patient, symbolising resilience and partnership between man and nature. In the background, lush green trees and distant palm silhouettes evoke the tranquility of the countryside. The soft merging of sky and earth through colour gives the scene a dreamy, almost spiritual quality, celebrating the humble dignity of agrarian life. This painting represents simplicity, hard work, and harmony with nature — a tribute to the timeless rhythm of rural life.

## Care

Gently dust with a soft, dry brush and display in a dry, shaded spot away from moisture and chemicals.
