EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1990s, captures the essence of the Appleby Horse Fair in Cumbria, England, with a focus on the farriers at work. The image, taken by renowned photographer Philip Dunn, portrays the dedication and skill of these traditional craftsmen as they shoe the gypsy horses. The horses, adorned with intricate trappings and harnesses, stand patiently as their hooves are expertly fitted with new shoes. The scene is a testament to the deep-rooted connection between the gypsy community and their horses, a bond that has been passed down through generations. The farriers' work is not only essential for the welfare of the horses but also a vital part of the cultural heritage of the Appleby Horse Fair. The photograph transports us back to a time when traditional practices and the love for animals were at the heart of this unique event. This image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in equestrian history, animal welfare, or the rich cultural traditions of the gypsy community.
