Fields of Gold

The fable, - In his will, a father leaves his sons his fields describing them as being ‘fields of gold’. Upon his death the sons immediately took to digging up the land in the search of the gold! They found none! As they gave up disheartened, the land gradually returned to growing a bounty of crops.

This Linocut features ‘fields of gold’ that pepper our rural landscape in spring in the production of oilseed rape.
