Mill Stones 1935 - 1942

"Mill Stones" is a watercolor painting by Hilda Olson, created between 1935 and 1942. Olson's detailed depiction of two millstones, one resting on top of the other, showcases the worn grooves of the stones and the small metal pin that secures them. This artwork, likely inspired by Olson's personal experiences or observations, offers a glimpse into the history of milling and its importance in everyday life, especially during the early 20th century. Its realistic style and meticulous detail make it a compelling example of still-life art.
