Information Provided by Michael D. Bulmash:
More than merely celebrating agriculture, this drawing of a Zionist tilling the soil is also a potent metaphor for Israeli pride in its independence, self-sufficiency, and self-generative power in creating a new nation with a new history for Jewish people after WWII.
