Amidst the vast golden expanse of a wheat field, east of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, lies the humble caryopsis - the seed of wheat and other grains like millet, sorghum, and proso millet. A close-up reveals the intricate structure of a green wheat head, adorned with dew drops, reflecting the first light of dawn. The lone tree in the middle stands as a testament to nature's beauty and resilience. From the rolling hills of the Palouse in Washington, USA, to the sun-kissed fields of Alberta, these grains form a tapestry of agriculture, their golden hues stretching to the horizon. In the microscopic world, the caryopsis of grass seed reveals a complex labyrinth of intricately patterned cells, a testament to nature's infinite complexity. Artwork brings these seeds to life, showcasing the intricacies of sorghum and proso millet, two essential members of the caryopsis family. The millet seed, as depicted in this lithograph, is a reminder of the rich cultural and nutritional significance of these ancient grains. The sunny day brings out the best in these fields, their golden hues a sight to behold. The caryopsis, a seemingly simple seed, is the foundation of a vast and complex agricultural industry, nourishing millions around the world.
