This painting, reproduced as a limited edition reproduction as well as a poster, helped raise a considerable sum for the International Plowing Match and Machinery Show held in Waterloo Region. Using research from local historical sources, I was able to construct a painting that paralleled a promotional campaign already developed using a covered wagon. Using this replica Conestoga wagon as a model, my aim was to show a time many years ago in our region. Plowing, of course, also needed to be a part of this work.
