EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Ploughing in the Manitoba Plains (Canada), late 19th century" takes us back to a time when agriculture was at the heart of Canadian life. The image showcases an unknown artist's keen eye for capturing the essence of rural Canada during this era. In the foreground, we see a sturdy horse harnessed to an agricultural vehicle, ready to embark on its ploughing journey. The horse stands tall and strong, symbolizing the resilience and hard work that characterized early Canadian farmers. Behind it, a skilled farmer guides the plow through the fertile soil of Manitoba's plains with precision and determination. The vastness of the landscape stretches out before them, hinting at both opportunity and challenge. As we gaze into this snapshot from history, we can almost feel the crisp prairie air and hear the rhythmic sound of hooves treading upon earth. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Canada's rich agricultural heritage. It reminds us of our deep connection with nature and our reliance on it for sustenance. Leonard de Selva skillfully preserves this piece of history through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. As we ponder upon this scene from over a century ago, let us reflect on how far we have come while acknowledging those who paved the way for modern farming practices in Canada.
