EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, published in 1875, showcases the remarkable steam ploughing engines that revolutionized agriculture during the Industrial Revolution. The print features five distinct scenes depicting various steam-powered farming equipment and their efficient operations. In the first image, we witness James & Frederick Howard's innovative steam plough system in action. The powerful engine effortlessly pulls a plow through a neatly cultivated field, leaving behind perfectly furrowed rows. Next to it stands another creation by Howard brothers called "Grubber" designed for deep soil cultivation. John Fowler's contribution is showcased in the third scene with his Balance Plough, which demonstrates its ability to maintain stability while tilling uneven terrain. Adjacent to it is James & Frederick Howard's ingenious Plough Windlass, an apparatus used for winding up cables and ropes essential for effective plowing. Lastly, John Fowler presents his locomotive equipped with a winding drum - an impressive contraption that combines both transportation and power generation capabilities. This engraved image not only captures the historical significance of these machines but also provides a glimpse into English culture during this transformative period. It highlights how British farmers embraced technological advancements to enhance agricultural productivity and shape their landscape. The intricate details of each machine are beautifully captured by the woodcut technique employed here. From the spiral staircase leading up to the engine compartment to the curved lines of freshly plowed fields stretching into the horizon – every element adds depth and realism to this stunning portrayal of early mechanized farming practices.
