EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the late 19th century showcases a yoke of oxen, standing tall and strong in their square male agricultural glory. The vibrant color format brings to life the rich history and significance of these magnificent animals in our farming heritage. In this image, we witness the true power and resilience of these oxen as they diligently plough through the land. With each step, they leave behind a trail that represents their hard work and dedication. It is fascinating to learn that during this era, a yoke of oxen could accomplish remarkable feats - tilling one whole acre in just one day or effortlessly pulling an astonishing weight of one ton and a quarter for an impressive distance of 20 miles. This print not only captures the machinery-like precision with which these animals perform their roles but also sheds light on the vital occupations they held on farms across the world. They were instrumental in shaping our agricultural landscape during this period. As we gaze upon this timeless piece captured by Hulton Archive, it serves as a reminder of how interconnected humans have been with animals throughout history. This photograph encapsulates both admiration for nature's strength and appreciation for those who worked tirelessly alongside these noble creatures to cultivate our lands.
