From the battlefields of the United States Marines Corps, where the Lockheed KC-130F Hercules hauls supplies, to the ancient Nile Expedition depicted in an engraving, the art of hauling has been a vital part of human history. In Dax, France, a modern barge is hauled along the canal, mirroring the determination of the boatmen on the Volga River in Ilya Repin's iconic oil painting, 'Barge Haulers on the Volga,' created in 1873. Repin's masterpiece showcases the grueling labor of hauling barges, a tradition that continues today in Paris, France, and even in Serbia's bustling city of Belgrade. The art of hauling, whether by the mighty KC-130F or the tireless boatmen, is a testament to human perseverance and the unyielding power of progress.
