EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Horse bits, good and bad, c1909 (c1910)" takes us back to the early 20th century when horses were an integral part of daily life. The image showcases a collection of horse bits, both good and bad, highlighting the importance of proper equipment for these majestic creatures. The photograph captures the intricate details of each bit, emphasizing their significance in controlling and guiding horses during various activities such as riding or pulling carriages. The headpieces are delicately engraved with patterns that reflect the craftsmanship of that era. The concept behind this image is to educate horse enthusiasts about the importance of selecting appropriate tack for their equine companions. It serves as a reminder that using ill-fitting or harsh bits can cause discomfort and even harm to these gentle animals. Originally published in "Live Stock in Health and Disease" edited by Professor J Prince-Sheldon around 1909-1910, this print provides a historical perspective on equestrian practices from over a century ago. Preserved by The Waverley Book Co. Ltd in London since its publication around 1890, it continues to be cherished as a valuable piece of art capturing an essential aspect of our relationship with animals. As we admire this engraving today, let us remember the timeless lessons it imparts - treating our animal companions with care and respect while understanding the significance of choosing suitable equipment for their well-being.
