Feeding Chickens with Grandaddy
"Feeding the Chickens with Granddaddy" is a slice of life on a Tennessee farm in the 1950s. Farmers raised chickens, as well as cattle and other livestock, and produced most of the food for their family. The toddler, in her old-fashion cloth diaper, on the hot summer day is "helping" Granddaddy by sprinkling feed on the ground for the hens.
It fits the category of "genre" painting, which is a depiction of people living their lives, doing specific activities. I got the idea from an old photo of my grandfather and me, but it's the activity, more than the identity of the people that is important.
