red barns
Rustic agricultural buildings
Red barns are a familiar feature of rural American landscapes, particularly in the Midwest and Northeast.
The iconic color comes from a historical practice of mixing rust or ferric oxide into sealants to protect wood—red pigment was cheap and effective.
The image has become shorthand for pastoral Americana: rolling hills dotted with red barns, a red barn wedding venue.
