EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut titled "PLOUGHING, 1523" takes us back in time to the early days of agriculture in England. It serves as the title-page for the first-ever book on farming printed in the country, known as The Boke of Husbandrie, published in 1523. The image depicts a scene from daily life on a rural farm during the Renaissance period. A group of men can be seen working diligently with an ox-drawn plow, tilling the fertile fields that stretch out before them. The farmer leading this laborious task wears a hat and is focused on guiding his team through the undulating terrain. The woodcut showcases not only the physical work involved but also highlights various elements of English countryside living at that time. Nestled atop a hill, we catch glimpses of quaint cottages and farmland stretching into the distance. This artwork offers us a glimpse into an era when farming was central to people's lives and survival depended on agricultural practices. It reminds us of our connection to nature and how centuries-old techniques shaped our understanding of cultivation. As we admire this historic print, let it serve as a tribute to those hardworking individuals who dedicated their lives to shaping England's agricultural landscape and laid down foundations for modern farming practices that continue today.
