Thomas Hart Benton (1889-1975)

Threshing Wheat

1941

The lithograph published by Associated American Artists in an edition of 250 prints is signed by the artist in pencil below the image lower right and listed as Fath catalog number 48.

Benton's comments in Fath read: Made from a series of drawings and a painting done in 1938. The scene represents the last steam thresher engine to be operated in Johnson County, Kansas. The area represented is within 25 miles of my K.C. home. We were still near the county here in 1938. I'll bet every bit of this land is now sprouting ranch houses and swim pools and teenage protestants. It is, in 1974.
