EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of ploughing with horses from the Victorian period, as depicted in The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. This vintage photograph transports us to a simpler era, where the rhythmic pace of rural life was governed by the seasons and the strength of the working animals. The scene unfolds on a sun-kissed, golden-hued farmland, where the earth is ripe and ready for the annual ploughing. A sturdy farmer, dressed in traditional attire, stands at the reins of two powerful horses, their coats glistening with sweat from the arduous labor. The horses, with their strong muscles rippling under their sleek coats, pull the heavy plough through the soil, turning it over to prepare it for planting. The air is filled with the scent of damp earth, the sound of horses' hooves and the clanking of metal against the ground. The farmer's face is etched with determination and focus, as he guides his team with unwavering precision. The scene is reminiscent of the trades and crafts of the past, where the land was tilled, and crops were grown using the power of nature and the strength of man and beast. This evocative image is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the farming community during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. It is a reminder of the close connection between the people and the land, and the importance of the agricultural way of life. The lantern slide, a popular medium for projecting images during that time, adds to the nostalgic charm of this photograph.
