EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print showcases an intriguing advertisement for Corbeaufugine manure, a revolutionary solution to protect seeds from the relentless attacks of crows and rodents. Created by the French School in the early twentieth century, this colourful lithograph captures the essence of rural life and agricultural practices during that era. The image transports us to a quaint farmhouse surrounded by lush fields, where a diligent farmer is depicted sowing his precious seeds. However, looming above him are mischievous crows and pesky rats eagerly waiting to devour his hard work. Enter Corbeaufugine manure - the ultimate shield against these crop-destroying pests. With its vibrant hues and meticulous details, this artwork serves as both an advertisement and a testament to the ingenuity of farmers in combatting nature's challenges. The French text on the poster highlights Chaulage (engrais) destine a proteger les semailles contre corbeaux et rongeurs; translating to "Chalking (fertilizer) intended to protect sowings against crows and rodents". As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it reminds us of how crucial advertising has always been in promoting innovative solutions for farming communities worldwide. This historical gem not only celebrates agriculture but also pays homage to France's rich farming heritage while offering insight into early twentieth-century techniques used by farmers across Europe.
