Carrying Turf, Co. Mayo, West of Ireland, Early 1900s
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative image from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, available at Mary Evans Prints Online. This vintage photograph captures a moment in time from Ireland's rural past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of its people during the Edwardian and Victorian eras. The scene is set in the picturesque, rugged landscape of County Mayo in the west of Ireland. Two women, dressed in traditional clothing, are seen carrying turf on their backs using large creels, or wicker baskets. The turf, or peat, was a primary fuel source for heating homes and cooking meals in rural Ireland before the widespread use of coal and oil. The women are accompanied by a donkey, which is likely used to transport the heavy loads of turf from the bog to their homes. The image exudes a sense of hard work and determination, as the women navigate the uneven terrain with their burdens, while the donkey plods along steadily behind them. The lantern slide format of the photograph adds to its historical charm, as it was a popular medium for projecting images during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The muted colors and grainy texture of the image further enhance its authenticity, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the resilience and resourcefulness of rural communities in Ireland during the early 1900s. It offers a unique insight into the daily struggles and triumphs of the people who lived and worked in the west of Ireland during this period, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of Irish or social history imagery.
