EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Katherine MacFee, we are transported back in time to the early 1900s in East Cliff, Rye, East Sussex. The image showcases a scene of utmost craftsmanship and tradition as a horse is being shod in a blacksmith's forge near Landgate. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the skilled farrier at work. With his sleeves rolled up and sweat glistening on his brow, he meticulously tends to the horse's hooves with precision and expertise. His every movement exudes confidence and years of experience honing his craft. Standing nearby are two young boys, their eyes wide with wonderment as they observe this age-old practice unfold before them. They seem captivated by both the strength of the majestic animal before them and the skillful hands that care for it. The blacksmith's workshop itself serves as an atmospheric backdrop to this timeless scene. Filled with tools hanging from walls adorned with sooty marks from countless fires, it emanates an air of history and hard work. Katherine MacFee has masterfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also a glimpse into a world where manual labor was revered for its artistry and dedication. This print stands as a testament to human ingenuity and our connection to animals throughout history - reminding us all of our shared past rooted deeply within these ancient traditions.
