Heintzelman focused on depicting the common person during his career as an artist, as is evident in this work portraying a winemaker. The artist is able to define these people in different ways by emphasizing characteristics like gender, profession, age, and family relationships. By depicting common people, the artist allows for a broader range of viewers to connect with his images. This connection is furthered by the direct gaze of each of these subjects, establishing a relationship between the sitter and the viewer.
