EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Proportions of the thorough-bred and of the cart-horse" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of horse breeding in 19th-century England. The print showcases two distinct equine specimens side by side – a sleek and elegant thoroughbred juxtaposed with a sturdy and robust cart-horse. The image serves as an illustration for W J Miles' renowned book, "Modern Practical Farriery" providing valuable insights into the proportions and characteristics of these two types of horses. It is evident that each breed possesses unique attributes tailored to their specific roles on the farm or racetrack. The lithograph not only highlights the physical differences between these horses but also emphasizes their importance in various aspects of human life during that era. From agricultural work to sporting events, both breeds played vital roles in shaping society's development. As we admire this historical artwork, we are reminded of the significant role animals have played throughout history. Their care and well-being were crucial considerations for veterinarians and farmers alike. This print serves as a testament to our enduring relationship with animals, showcasing how humans have carefully bred different species to meet specific needs over centuries. With its intricate engravings capturing every detail, this lithograph transports us back in time while simultaneously reminding us of our ongoing responsibility towards animal welfare today.
