EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a scene of rural life in the Bearnais region of southwestern France during the 1910s. The image features a farmer skillfully guiding his team of oxen as they laboriously pull an oversized cart laden with bales of hay. The farmer, dressed in traditional Basque attire, wears a wide-brimmed hat and a simple tunic, while the oxen, with their powerful muscles rippling, wear heavy collars and yokes. The cart, made of sturdy wood and adorned with intricate carvings, is a testament to the craftsmanship and resourcefulness of the rural communities of the time. The Pyrenees Mountains loom in the background, their snow-capped peaks a stark contrast to the verdant rolling hills and golden fields of hay. The scene exudes a sense of tranquility and hard work, as the farmer and his oxen continue their daily toil, transporting the precious bales of hay to their destination. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the social and agricultural history of rural France, and the enduring bond between man and beast. The use of oxen for transportation was a common practice in the Bearnais region, where the terrain was often too rugged for horses and the steep inclines made oxen the preferred choice for transporting heavy loads. The hay, a crucial resource for the region's livestock, was essential for the survival of the farming communities, and the oxen played a vital role in ensuring its transportation from the fields to the farms. This photograph is a rare glimpse into a bygone era, and a reminder of the rich cultural and agricultural heritage of the Bearnais region.
