EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the medieval era, specifically during the time of Edward III. The image is taken from the Luttrell Psalter, an illuminated manuscript that depicts various aspects of daily life in England during this period. In this particular illustration, we see medieval peasants engaged in agricultural activities. The hardworking peasants are shown ploughing with oxen, threshing grains, harvesting crops using sickles, and broadcasting seeds across their fields. This snapshot provides a glimpse into the labor-intensive nature of farming practices at that time. The print is part of a book titled "A History of Everyday Things in England - Done in two parts" written by Marjorie and C. D. B Quennell and published in 1931. The authors aimed to chronicle ordinary life throughout English history up until 1499. With its monochrome aesthetic and detailed depiction of rural farming scenes, this image transports us back to a bygone era when agriculture was the backbone of society. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come technologically while also highlighting the resilience and resourcefulness displayed by our ancestors. This photograph not only showcases historical significance but also offers insight into the lives of those who toiled on the land centuries ago.
