EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of quiet intimacy between a groom and his trusty carthorse. The image, titled "A groom with carthorse in a stable" captures the essence of rural life during the 18th century. The groom stands proudly beside his magnificent steed, their bond evident in the gentle touch of his hand on the horse's powerful neck. Both man and beast exude strength and resilience, embodying the tireless work ethic required for agricultural labor. The setting is a humble stable, filled with rustic charm and character. Rays of sunlight filter through cracks in the wooden walls, casting soft shadows that dance across the scene. It is here that these two companions find solace amidst their daily toil. This print by James Ward showcases not only his artistic talent but also serves as a historical document capturing an era when plough horses were essential for farming practices. The presence of farm equipment such as ploughs hints at the vital role played by these majestic creatures in shaping our agricultural landscape. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from its private collection, allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and its significance within our shared history. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are reminded of humanity's deep connection with animals and how they have been integral to our survival throughout centuries past.
