"Return from the Plowing" (Le retour de labourage) is a print by the French artist Alphonse Legros (1837-1911). The artwork depicts a pair of draft animals, likely oxen, emerging from a wooded area after a day of working the fields. Legros’s use of a stippled technique gives the image a sense of depth and texture. The print is a simple, yet poignant depiction of rural life and the hard work of farmers.
