EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts St Isidore, the revered patron saint of farmers and day labourers. Created by a French School artist in the 19th century, this artwork showcases the deep connection between religion and agriculture during that era. In this educational card, we see St Isidore portrayed as a humble farmer diligently sowing seeds in his field. The plough he guides is pulled by strong oxen and horses, symbolizing the vital role animals played in farming practices back then. The image beautifully captures the essence of agricultural life, highlighting both its laborious nature and reliance on natural elements. The print also offers a glimpse into farm equipment and mechanisms used at that time. A threshing machine can be seen nearby, showcasing technological advancements for efficient grain separation. This scene not only celebrates farming but also emphasizes the importance of innovation within agricultural practices. St Isidore's presence serves as an inspiration to all workers involved in agriculture – from farriers to day labourers – reminding them of their significant contribution to society. His depiction here reflects Christian values such as hard work, dedication, and reverence for nature's bounty. Overall, this stunning print encapsulates a moment frozen in time when faith intertwined with daily life on farms across France. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of St Isidore while offering viewers an insight into historical farming techniques and religious devotion within rural communities.
