Original – "Ploughing in the Nevers" by Rosa Bonheur
Reason
Commissioned by the French government circa 1849, this painting of a ploughing team by one of the most famous of animal painters, Rosa Bonheur, is reckoned to express "the deep commitment to the land that was typical of the French Third Republic", and, next to her Horse Fair, is Rosa's second-best-known image.
