EDITORS COMMENTS
This black-and-white photograph captures the raw power and skill of a Blacksmith at work in the Horse Guards stables in London during the 1960s. The Blacksmith, dressed in a heavy shirt and apron, is intently focused on forging a new horseshoe for one of the military horses. With the heat of the fire radiating from the background, the Blacksmith expertly hammers away at the red-hot metal, shaping it to fit the horse's hoof. The horses, sensing the familiar rhythm of the Blacksmith's work, stand patiently nearby, their ears flickering with curiosity. The scene is filled with a sense of tradition and history, as the Blacksmith continues a craft that has been practiced for centuries. The sign above his workstation, bearing the warning "Danger - Welding in Progress," adds an element of danger and excitement to the image. The horseshoe, once completed, will provide essential protection for the horse, ensuring its health and wellbeing. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the daily life of the Horse Guards, a testament to the important role that animals and their caretakers played in military history.
