The story behind the photograph

A large collapsing barn stands in a frost-covered Jasper County, Iowa field in late winter. Its exposed roof joists and weathered yellow and dark gray boards lean against a bare frost-rimed tree, a grain elevator cupola still perched improbably on top, frost-covered cropland rolling away in the foreground under a flat, pale winter sky. A quiet record of the working farm structures that defined the Iowa landscape for a century and are disappearing from it now, one hard winter at a time.

A meaningful gift for an Iowa history enthusiast, rural landscape admirer, barn lover, or anyone who grew up on a farm and recognizes the particular dignity of a structure left to the elements.

Back of card: Blank, with the Midwest Wilderness Connections logo and the following description along the bottom edge: “Abandoned barn in winter. Jasper County, Iowa. — Midwest Wilderness Connections www.MidwestWildernessConnections.com”
