EDITORS COMMENTS
translated to English as "Type of Harnessing in the Philippines; The Lands of the Pacific," is a captivating photograph taken in 1914. The image, created by an unknown photographer, was originally published in the French magazine "Grande Geographie Bong Illustree." The photograph depicts a scene of rural life in the Philippines during the early 1900s. In the center of the image, a group of Filipino men are shown harnessing a pair of oxen to a traditional bullock cart. The oxen, with their powerful and muscular bodies, appear to be calm and obedient as they are being prepared for work. The men, dressed in simple clothing, are focused on their task, their expressions reflecting a sense of determination and purpose. The photograph provides a glimpse into the agricultural practices of the Philippines during this time period. The bullock cart, a common mode of transportation in rural areas, is an essential tool for transporting goods from one place to another. The image also highlights the close relationship between the people and the land, as they work together to cultivate and harvest crops. The photograph's composition is striking, with the oxen and men forming a clear focal point, while the lush green landscape and winding road in the background add depth and context to the scene. The use of black and white adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to a bygone era. Overall, "Type d'attelage aux Philippines; Les Terres Du Pacifique" is a beautiful and evocative snapshot of rural life in the Philippines during the early 20th century.
