Drawing of a farming disc, the first few discs are show as the disappear into the piece, and the seat sits high up on the piece.“An unlikely combination of practical entrepreneur and preoccupied artist, Collings was involved with farm machinery sales between 1882 and 1888 in England. A writer who interviewed the artist in 1924 had the impression that Collings envisaged farm equipment as means for creating an enormous painting-like but three-dimensional “landscape.” -- “Charles John Collings, 1848-1931” Catalogue Raisonne by Linda Heath
