Description
Sunset At An Old Barn And Soy Beans in Blue Mountain Mississippi.
Nowadays barns are painted red because of tradition, but hundreds of years ago farmers were simply trying to preserve the wood. At first, farmers were making their own preservatives from linseed oil and various fillers, including ferric oxide, better known as rust. As you may know, ferric oxide is red and so was this homemade paint.
