day 161 - knock-off

this is a framed print hanging on the walls of a filipino restaurant in scarborough. it is a knock-off from an original work of one of the Philippines' great painters. the scene depicted here is a post-rice-harvest activity. it used to be like in the picture in the olden days. when tractors and plastics and other "modern" thingies invaded even the rural farms in that country, the scenario had dramatically changed. makes one long for the good old days.
