This ink drawing masterfully captures to work horses, employed pulling a cart. Prior to 1910, the horse was the main source of power for agriculture, the military, public works industries, and transportation. They were an integral part of the nation's Westward expansion, their strength proving invaluable in plowing untouched lands and hauling building materials. Even though America came to rely heavily on the draft horse, its popularity waned as the 20th century progressed due to an influx of European laborers that accounted for a surplus of workers, and the invention of both the car and the Fordson Tractor of 1917.

- American Primitive Folk Artist Jane Wooster Scott Original WatercolorBy Jane Wooster ScottLocated in Larchmont, NYJane Wooster Scott (American, b. 1920) Untitled (Cats), 20th century Watercolor on paper Sight size: 10 x 14 in. Framed: 17 x 20 3/4 in. Signed lower left: Wooster In the "Guinness Book of Records" as one of the most reproduced artists in America, Jane Wooster Scott began copying work by folk artists such as Grandma Moses and gradually evolved into her own style. A turning point for her career was a joint showing at the Ankrum Gallery in Los Angeles with her comedian friend, Jonathan Winters.

Currently (2002) she resides in homes in Los Angeles and Sun Valley...Category
