EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Ploughing DIX02_01_081" takes us back in time to the 1930s when agriculture was a way of life. The image showcases a horse-team ploughing under the shadow of an imposing dyke, creating a stunning juxtaposition between man-made structures and the natural landscape. The exact location is uncertain, as it could either be the infamous Devils Dyke near Brighton or Offas Dyke on the Welsh/English borders. Regardless, this photograph beautifully captures rural England's essence with its rolling hills and picturesque scenery. In this snapshot of history, we witness hardworking people engaged in traditional farming practices. A group of individuals can be seen diligently hand ploughing alongside their trusty working horses. This scene not only highlights their dedication but also emphasizes the strong bond between humans and animals that played an integral role in agricultural work during those times. J Dixon Scott skillfully immortalized this moment through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty of nature and the importance of preserving our cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this print today, let us reflect on how far we have come while cherishing these timeless traditions that shaped our past.
