EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ploughing, 14th century" takes us back in time to the reign of Edward III in England. Captured by Emily Jessie Ashdown in 1910, this image showcases an agricultural scene from the medieval era. In this snapshot, we see a poverty-stricken peasant man dressed in traditional attire diligently ploughing a field with the help of two strong oxen. The simplicity and hardship of rural life during that period are evident as we observe the worn-out clothing and rugged landscape surrounding them. The image not only highlights the occupation of a ploughman but also emphasizes the importance of farming and agriculture for survival during those times. It serves as a reminder of how crucial these laborious tasks were for sustaining communities. Emily Jessie Ashdown's attention to detail transports us into this historical moment, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and challenges faced by individuals living centuries ago. Through her lens, she captures not just an ordinary job but also conveys a sense of resilience and determination exhibited by peasants who worked tirelessly on their land. This remarkable piece from Mrs Charles H Ashdown's collection provides us with valuable insight into British history while honoring those whose livelihoods depended on such arduous farm work.
