EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Oxen treading out Corn" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a scene of biblical significance. The print, part of a private collection, was created by an English School artist and featured in Cassells Illustrated Family Bible Superior Edition around 1880. The image transports us to ancient times when oxen were employed to thresh corn. This practice is mentioned in various books of the Bible, including Deuteronomy and Psalms. It serves as a powerful reminder of the agricultural traditions that shaped societies long ago. With meticulous detail and skillful execution, the engraving captures the essence of this timeless story from the Old Testament. The viewer can almost feel the rhythmic motion as these majestic creatures tread upon sheaves of corn on a dusty threshing floor. As we gaze at this artwork, we are reminded not only of its religious significance but also its historical importance. Through art like this, we gain insight into daily life during biblical times and appreciate how people relied on nature's resources for sustenance. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through their Fine Art Finder platform, allowing us to delve deeper into our shared cultural heritage. Let it serve as a testament to humanity's enduring connection with both spirituality and agriculture throughout history.
