EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "In a field in the environs of Rome two oxen pulling a plow with a farmer on it" transports us back to the early 20th century, offering an intimate glimpse into the world of farming and country life. Taken between 1900-1910 by Brogi, one of Italy's renowned photographers, this image captures the essence of hard work and dedication. The scene unfolds against a backdrop of vast farmland stretching as far as the eye can see. Two powerful oxen are harnessed together, their muscles straining as they pull a sturdy plow guided by an experienced farmer. The man sits atop the wooden contraption, his weathered face reflecting years spent tending to the land. As we examine this photograph closely, we notice every intricate detail that tells its own story. The cloud-dotted sky above hints at meteorological conditions that impact agricultural endeavors. The lush vegetation surrounding them signifies fertile soil and abundant growth. The attire worn by both man and beast offers insights into fashion choices during that era – from the farmer's traditional hat to military-inspired headdresses adorning his animals. These accessories not only serve practical purposes but also reflect cultural influences within rural communities. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this print serves as a tribute to those who dedicate their lives to working off the land. It reminds us of our deep connection with nature and highlights how agriculture has shaped civilizations throughout history. Brogi's masterful composition allows us to step into this timeless moment frozen in time – where human determination meets natural forces in perfect harmony. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured over a century ago, we are reminded of our roots and inspired by those who have come before us in shaping our world through laborious yet fulfilling work on Earth's bountiful fields.
