This print showcases the evolution of agricultural practices in Britain during the 19th century. The image features a comparison of two steam-plough systems - Howards system at the top and Fowlers below, with Hornsbys traditional animal-mounted plough between them.
The top portion of the photograph displays Howards system, a revolutionary method that utilized steam engines to power the ploughing process. This innovative approach marked a significant shift from traditional farming techniques, paving the way for increased efficiency and productivity in agriculture.
In contrast, the lower section depicts Fowlers steam-plough system, showcasing another unique method of utilizing steam power for ploughing purposes. Both systems demonstrate how technology was rapidly transforming the agricultural landscape during this period.
The inclusion of Hornsbys traditional animal-mounted plough between the two steam-powered systems serves as a poignant reminder of how quickly advancements were being made in farming practices. The juxtaposition highlights the stark differences between old and new methods of ploughing, underscoring the rapid pace of change brought about by industrialization.
