Agricultural Agriculture Dealer Drawn Laden Load Loaded Oxen Wheel Secunderabad
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life of an Indian hay dealer in the bustling city of Secunderabad, Telangana, India, during the 1910s. The man, dressed in traditional attire, skillfully loads hay onto his ox-drawn cart, using a long stick to guide the heavy bales into place. The oxen, powerful and patient, stand quietly at the front of the cart, their harnesses glinting in the sunlight. The scene unfolds on a dusty road, where the sounds of commerce and industry mix with the cacophony of animal calls and the chatter of passersby. The cart, laden with hay, is a common sight on the streets of Secunderabad, a hub for agriculture and farming in the region. The wheel of the cart, with its intricate design and worn edges, speaks to the countless journeys it has made through the rural and urban landscapes of India. The hay dealer's role is crucial in the agricultural community, as he provides farmers with the essential resource they need to feed their livestock and maintain their fields. His dedication and hard work are evident in the determined set of his jaw and the focused expression in his eyes. The photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when the rhythms of rural life continued to shape the bustling urban centers of India.
