In this print titled "A man ploughs his fields with oxen" we are transported to the rural landscapes of Sudan. Situated near the majestic River Nile, a farmer diligently tends to his land using traditional methods passed down through generations. Under the scorching sun, the hardworking farmer guides a pair of strong and sturdy oxen as they pull an ancient wooden plough. The fertile soil is being turned over, preparing it for planting crops that will sustain both him and his community. The scene exudes tranquility and simplicity, showcasing the beauty of subsistence farming in its purest form. The farmer's Islamic dress reflects not only his cultural identity but also highlights how religion intertwines with daily life in this region. As we observe closely, we notice a network of ditches and furrows crisscrossing the landscape. These channels serve as an intricate irrigation system, bringing water from the nearby river to nourish each plot of land. It is a testament to human ingenuity and resourcefulness in harnessing nature's gifts for agricultural purposes. This powerful image captures not just an individual at work but also represents a way of life deeply rooted in tradition and respect for nature. It reminds us that amidst modern advancements, there are still communities relying on age-old practices to sustain themselves while preserving their cultural heritage.
