EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the early 1900s, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable scene of agricultural work in Cornwall. The image showcases a female worker fearlessly taking charge of ploughing, donning a long mac and sou'wester hat as protection against the elements. With determination etched on her face, she expertly guides a two furrow plough pulled by a team of magnificent horses. What makes this snapshot even more intriguing is the presence of a man closely observing her progress. Perhaps he is overseeing her work or providing guidance, highlighting the significance of gender roles during that era. This photograph serves as an important reminder of women's contributions to rural labor at a time when their involvement was often overlooked. The photographer behind this evocative image is Arthur William Jordan, whose lens captured not only the physicality but also the spirit and resilience embedded within Cornwall's farming community. Through his artistry, Jordan immortalizes an intimate moment that encapsulates both tradition and progression. This print from Royal Cornwall Museum transports us into an era where hard work defined daily life and celebrates those who dedicated themselves to shaping our agricultural heritage. It stands as a testament to human perseverance amidst challenging conditions while offering us insight into the rich history of Cornish culture.
