Men work in a grain field at Salonica, with two horses harnessed near large stacks and men holding rakes and pitchforks; mountains rise in the background. The message notes that "The whole family works together" and describes a wooden flat set with flint stones dragged over the grain to break off the straw, a traditional threshing method used before winnowing.
