EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "PLOWING WITH HEAD YOKE" takes us back to the year 1863 in America. The wood engraving beautifully captures a scene of hard work and determination on a farm during that era. In the middle of the frame, we see an ox with its head held high, adorned with a sturdy yoke made from horn. This traditional method of plowing involved attaching this yoke to the animal's head, allowing it to pull heavy loads across the fields. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia as we witness this age-old practice that was once essential for agricultural productivity. The details in the engraving showcase not only the strength and power of these magnificent creatures but also their partnership with humans in shaping our history. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported to a time when farming relied heavily on manual labor and close collaboration between man and beast. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come technologically while honoring those who worked tirelessly under challenging conditions. "PLOWING WITH HEAD YOKE" is more than just an engraving; it represents an important chapter in American agriculture and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to cultivating our land.
