This large-scale work by Ainslie depicts workers raising their picks to pierce hard rock, making way for trenches and furrows on a farm. He makes a clear distinction between the passive white foreman and the black labourers, with the abstractions of the surrounding landscape reinforcing this disjointed division between figures.
