This print showcases the evolution of agricultural practices in Britain during the 19th century. The image features a comparison of two steam-plough systems - Howards system at the top and Fowlers below, with Hornsbys traditional animal-mounted plough between them.
The top portion of the photograph displays Howards system, a revolutionary method that utilized steam engines to power the ploughing process.
