Farm life Prairies Railroads -- pictorial works 20th century United States Midwestern states (U.S.)

When David Plowden traveled from his native East Coast to the Midwest, he was stunned by the landscape Walt Whitman described as North America's characteristic landscape. In the years that followed, he became enthralled by its vast open spaces and wildly changing skies. Fields of wheat, grain, and corn, farms, and grain elevators became the subjects of his photographs. The best of his work over the past thirty-five years is presented here in generously-sized black and white.
