About this work
A man sows seed on his field. The seed that falls on the road is eaten by birds. Another part finds no good ground on the stones. A third part falls among the thorn bushes and is choked. Only the seed on the field ends up on good ground. Letters are placed next to various elements of the representation. The print is part of an album.
