Ranchers, released in an edition of 295 in 2015 as part of Dylans’ The Brazil Series, depicts figures gathered around wooden baskets filled with bright red produce, likely apples or tomatoes from a harvest. Dylan's composition captures a moment of agricultural commerce, showing workers in period dress engaged with the fruits of rural labour. The piece emphasises the continuing relevance of agricultural work in contemporary American life, and also its nostalgic beauty.
The wooden baskets dominate the composition of Ranchers, their woven forms rendered in warm browns and yellows that contrast dramatically with the vibrant red of the produce they contain. Dylan employs bold black outlines to define each basket's structure, creating strong geometric forms that anchor the composition and draw the viewer’s eye, just as they draw the eyes of the ranchers. The ranchers themselves wear hats and work clothes appropriate to agricultural labour, their poses belying the physical effort involved in their physical work. His colour palette emphasises the abundance of the harvest through the intense reds that spill over basket edges, creating visual rhythm across the composition.
The work reflects Dylan's interest in documenting the agricultural processes that sustain American communities, from cultivation through harvest to market. The ranchers, with their similar attire and shared purpose, represent both a community and the central activities that hold the community together. In this way, it connects to American folk art traditions that celebrated rural labour and community cooperation.
