Flat Keeping Pigs Poppies Stick Watches Goading
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a glimpse into the historical farming practices of 19th century France. In the image, a young boy in a flat cap stands watch over a pig with his goading stick in hand. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush poppy fields and an old stone bridge, adding to the rustic charm of the moment.
The boy's attentive gaze as he watches over his charge speaks volumes about the importance of pig keeping in French agricultural traditions. His simple yet effective tool, the goading stick, is a testament to the resourcefulness and ingenuity of farmers during this time period.
As we admire this snapshot from history, we are transported back to a simpler era where life revolved around hard work and close connection to nature. The composition of the photograph is beautifully framed, capturing not only the interaction between boy and pig but also showcasing the picturesque French countryside.
Mary Evans Picture Library has once again provided us with a window into another time through their collection of historical prints. This particular piece serves as a reminder of our agricultural roots and highlights the timeless bond between humans and animals in farming communities around the world.
