Photo of the Week: Tractor Art for Obama

______
This aerial photograph of a farm near Verona in Northern Italy depicts artist Dario Gambarin’s most recent project. The portrait, accompanied by the words, “The Hope is in the Land”, covers an area of 27,000 square meters and was created during a 90 minute performance by the Italian on July 5, 2009. The release of the image coincides with Obama’s visit to Italy for the G-8 summit in L’Aquila. Via Spiegel Online

I can’t help but wonder at Gambarin’s choice of words; is there a double entendre here?
