EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor painting by Malcolm Greensmith captures the essence of traditional farming practices as a heavy Shire horse diligently pulls a light one-wheeled plough through a lush, green field. The horse, adorned with intricate tack and harness, wears a bridle with blinkers to keep its focus on the task at hand. In the distance, contented cattle graze, their presence adding to the idyllic scene. The earth, freshly turned by the plough, reveals the promise of new life as seeds lie hidden beneath the soil, waiting to sprout. This scene, reminiscent of a bygone era, evokes a sense of nostalgia and connection to the land. The historical significance of this image lies in the use of a heavy horse to pull a light plough, a method that was once common in dairy farming. The horse's strength and endurance were essential for the labor-intensive work of ploughing and preparing the land for crops. The collar and drill collar, which can be seen in the painting, were crucial components of the horse's harness. The collar, which rested on the horse's withers, was used to attach the traces, or straps, that connected the horse to the plough. The drill collar, located closer to the horse's head, was used to guide the horse's movements and ensure that the plough remained on a straight path. This painting, with its attention to detail and evocative imagery, offers a glimpse into the rich history of farming and the important role that horses played in shaping the agricultural landscape. Malcolm Greensmith's masterful use of watercolor captures the beauty and simplicity of a time when the rhythm of the land and the strength of the horse were in perfect harmony.
