EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph titled "Smut on Maize" takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the world of agriculture and farming. The English School artist skillfully captures the essence of livestock husbandry during this historic period. The image showcases a scene from Livestock In Health and Disease, an influential book by A H Archer edited by J Prince-Sheldon. It depicts a farmer tending to his maize crop, which is afflicted with smut disease. This visual representation serves as an illustration for the book's chapter on combating plant diseases in livestock farming. The print transports us to a time when farmers relied heavily on their domesticated animals for sustenance and livelihoods. It reminds us of the crucial role that livestock played in early-century agriculture, providing not only food but also labor power for various tasks. With its meticulous attention to detail, this lithograph offers valuable insights into agricultural practices of yesteryears. It stands as a testament to our ancestors' dedication towards overcoming challenges such as smut disease while striving for successful harvests. As we admire this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it prompts reflection on how far we have come in terms of advancements in farming techniques and disease prevention methods.
