La Era Painting By: Diego Rivera




This is one of Diego Rivera's famous paintings named "La Era",it was painted in 1904.
He painted a worker with two horses working sun up to sun down. To me this painting signifies how the field workers get every minute of work done to accomplish their goals in life. I also think that this painting portrays the simpler time when all there was family and work, no technology. I guess I can say they didn't have much to worry about. It was a simpler time than it is now.
Looking at this picture makes me feel like I am there. I can feel the weather and the heat from the picture, it makes me feel like breezy summer evenings when the sun is going down. I really liked this picture!
