Image description

In Cloud Trails, the repetition of precisely painted wheat stalks suggests a limitless field under a brilliant expanse of sky. The brightly colored advertisements papering the barn testify to the activities and products available in the artist's Midwestern hometown. However, these manmade elements in combination with the absence of human figures make this unassuming scene seem eerily abandoned. John Rogers Cox's unsettling American Scene landscapes from the 1940s like this one are his most powerful works.
