EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Driven cattle, Norfolk a98_11670" takes us back to the bustling streets of Norwich in May 1954. The image captures a timeless scene of hardworking farmers driving their cattle towards the railway station on Heigham Street. In an era when tradition reigned supreme, this was how livestock made their way to market - by hoof and rail. Hallam Ashley's lens skillfully freezes this moment in time, showcasing the dedication and labor that went into transporting these animals for trade. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that times have changed dramatically since then. Today, modern transportation methods such as lorries have replaced the age-old practice of driving cattle through town. The photograph not only documents an essential aspect of rural life but also serves as a reminder of our ever-evolving world. It prompts us to reflect on how advancements in technology have transformed even the most fundamental aspects of farming practices. With its rich detail and atmospheric quality, Hallam Ashley's work transports us back to a bygone era where simplicity intertwined with hard work defined daily existence. This print is not just an exquisite piece capturing animal husbandry; it is also a testament to our collective heritage and the changing face of agriculture throughout history.
