<div>"Planting (Spring Plowing)", a vibrant watercolor and graphite on paper by Thomas Hart Benton, circa 1939-40, embodies the artist’s signature Regionalist style. The work depicts a rural scene where two figures toil in a field, one guiding a plow pulled by a donkey, the other carrying a bucket, sowing seeds under a bright, cloud-streaked sky. The rolling, richly hued earth, painted in warm browns and oranges, contrasts with the lush green foliage and distant trees, while a small structure sits at the horizon, grounding the composition in everyday life. Benton’s dynamic lines and fluid brushwork capture the rhythm of labor and the vitality of spring, infusing the scene with a sense of movement and purpose. </div><br><br><div> </div><br><br><div>The reverse image of this artwork was transformed into a lithograph in 1939, with notable examples housed in prestigious museum collections including the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Nelson Atkins Museum of Art, Minneapolis Institute of Art, and the Chazen Museum of Art. This print adaptation underscores the piece’s cultural significance, reflecting Benton’s influence on American art during the Depression era and the resonance of this particular subject celebrating the resilience and harmony of its people with nature. Created with a keen eye for detail and a deep connection to the land, "Planting (Spring Plowing)" showcases Benton’s ability to blend realism with his hallmark muscular style.

托马斯·哈特·本顿创作于1939-40年间的纸本水彩与石墨画《耕种（春耕）》，以鲜活笔触展现了艺术家标志性的地域主义风格。画面描绘乡村场景：两人在田间劳作，一人驾驭驴拉犁，另一人提着水桶，在云卷云舒的晴空下播撒种子。 起伏的土地以暖棕与橙色浓墨重彩，与葱郁的绿叶及远方的树木形成鲜明对比，地平线上一座小建筑将画面锚定于日常生活。本顿充满张力的线条与流畅的笔触捕捉了劳动的韵律与春天的生机，赋予场景动感与目标感。
