EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Chevaux percherons al ecurie; Fosse afumier" transports us back to 19th century France. Taken by the talented artist Charles Emile Jacque, this image showcases the beauty and strength of Percheron horses in their natural habitat. The scene unfolds within a rustic stable, where these magnificent draft horses find solace after a long day's work. The wood engraving captures every intricate detail of their muscular bodies and expressive eyes. These majestic creatures stand tall, emanating power and grace. In the foreground lies a manure pit, serving as a reminder of the hard labor that accompanies caring for such noble animals. It symbolizes the cycle of life on a country farm - from hay-filled stables to fertile fields nourished by nature's bounty. Jacque masterfully uses light and shadow to create depth in this monochromatic composition. The contrast between dark corners and illuminated areas adds an air of mystery to the scene, inviting viewers to explore further into its narrative. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print is not just an artistic masterpiece but also a testament to our shared heritage with these incredible creatures. It serves as a window into history, reminding us of our deep connection with animals and the importance they hold in shaping our world. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork by Charles Emile Jacque, we are transported back in time - witnessing both the simplicity and complexity that coexist within rural
