A circular earthenware plate features a dark brown border patterned with white stars. A central landscape contains vertical corn shocks and pumpkins. Beyond a horizontal fence, cattle graze before an industrial building with silos. Fine dark brown lines across the off-white surface form billowing smoke and linear clouds, creating a rhythmic composition of agricultural and industrial motifs.
