    Ramkinkar was well aware of the post-industrial art or the modern movements in the western and eastern art scene and tried to incorporate the dynamics of such changes in his own work while keeping the Santiniketan aesthetic tradition in focus. In this painting, he has depicted a woman and a man threshing crop, rendered with the shades of oil colours delineating forms and adding depth in the composition.
