EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Rice Harvest in Korea, Winnowing and Threshing, 1904" offers a vivid glimpse into the agricultural practices of early 20th century Korea. The image showcases a pivotal moment in the rice harvest process, where diligent laborers engage in winnowing and threshing to separate the precious grains from their husks. Set against a backdrop of serene countryside scenery, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of rural life during that era. A group of hardworking male and female workers can be seen diligently engaged in their tasks, showcasing both the physical demands and teamwork required for successful rice cultivation. Produced as part of a series illustrating Korean life for promotional trade cards by Liebig, this particular artwork served to advertise Liebigs meat extract - an essential food staple in European households by the late 19th century. This historical context adds another layer of significance to this vintage card's depiction of traditional farming methods. "The Rice Harvest in Korea" transports viewers back to a time when agriculture played an integral role in sustaining communities. It serves as a reminder of our deep-rooted connection with nature and highlights the tireless efforts put forth by farmers throughout history. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are reminded to appreciate not only the beauty captured within its frame but also acknowledge those who have dedicated themselves to feeding nations through their unwavering commitment to farming traditions.
